North Korean IT experts target US firms

North Korean operatives are using stolen identities, AI tools, and remote job applications to infiltrate U.S. companies, generating nearly $800 million in 2024 to fund weapons programs. They target American firms by recruiting Americans to host laptops and impersonate employees, creating a broad network that can access sensitive data and critical infrastructure. The scheme has evolved with increased use of AI and third-party intermediaries, making detection more difficult, and is linked to North Korea's broader military support, including recent cooperation with Russia. Experts warn this operation poses a significant threat to U.S. national security and requires companies to strengthen verification measures.
