Since 2022, Mandiant has tracked North Korean IT workers who, posing as non-North Koreans, secure employment in various industries to fund DPRK's weapons programs, often engaging in cyber intrusions with the help of foreign facilitators. In this episode, CyberScoop Editor-in-Chief Greg Otto talks with Mandiant’s Michael Barnhart on what is going on in terms of North Korea’s goals, and how organizations can take precautions to prevent remote worker fraud. Greg also talks to CyberScoop reporter AJ Vicens on the latest LockBit takedown, which was conducted by a host of different countries.
