North Korea has created hacker groups focusing on artificial intelligence

Some sources have reported that the North Korean government is establishing hacker groups focusing on artificial intelligence. These groups are set to operate under the supervision of the North Korean intelligence agency.

Daily NK, which covers North Korean news, quoted an internal source last week that the North Korean government created a new hacker unit called Research Center 227 aimed at researching technologies and aggressive hacking programs.

The goal of the North Korean government is to establish this unit of robbery of Ramsar

According to the magazine, the Research Center 227 has a task of researching cyber security systems and Western computer networks and enhancing the North Korean regime’s capabilities to steal digital assets. The development of artificial intelligence -based techniques for theft of information and collaborating with North Korean hacker groups abroad is another task of this newly established unit.

The US National Security Agency and the FBI had previously accused the North Korean intelligence agency of hacking and spying on Western companies and countries.

It also appears that theft of Ramsarz has become a new focus of North Korean -affiliated hackers. These hackers have been responsible for theft of billions of dollars in Ramsar over the past decade, and in the latest case, more than $ 1 billion in digital assets have been stolen from the BYBIT currency exchange.

Statistics also show that North Korean hackers have been repeatedly increased in recent years. North Korean hacker groups had stolen more than $ 5 million from various currency exchanges a year, but the figure reached more than $ 1 billion and $ 5 million a year, showing a 4.7 percent growth. It is also expected that we will continue to see billions of dollars in Ramsar by North Korean hackers in year 2.
