North Korean Hackers targeting Banks Globally.

~ Once again very warm welcome to all the readers of the 'NewAgeInformers' . Today what I am going to share you is that the group of some black-hat hackers from the North Korea are targeting the banks world wide .

~ According to some past reports, some of the hackers operating from the North Korea had managed to steal almost $81 million from the Bangladesh's Central Banks. Recently, Kaspersky, the cyber security firm had claimed that from the notorious Lazarus, a group of attackers were probably trying to attack those banks belonging to the 18 countries which were the victims of this group before in past. According to the white-hat hackers group of the North Korean government, Lazaus (group of black-hat hackers) is busy in attacking the banks around the globe.

~ Due to not hiding their proper location, the Kaspersky's Vitaly Kamluk, they had managed to trace the hackers. The white-hat hackers from the Kaspersky' Vitaly Kamluk, identified the hackers through the sort and single session that came out of the extremely "rare and unexpected IP range" which is originated from the North Korea. And the second clue that points out that the hackers are from the North Korea is the language of the computer coding which is being used for attacking.

~ According to the report revealed by the Kamluk, the attackers used a smart skill range and tricks to start the sophisticated malware campaign. Suprisingly this hackers are well developed in such a way that they used those tricks which made the investigators to chew the iron grams. Kamluk also told to the CNN that the attackers had used a lot of the anti-forensics techniques to not get tracked down. Even the FBI had also confirmed that there is the involvement of the North Korean hackers in the past attacks on the banks.

~ Some of the experts has expressed their thoughts that if this analysis is true then the main cause behind this huge attack is that the North Korean government wants to raise money by either way. Also according to the professor of Peterson Institute, Marcus Noland North Korea in past had tried some illegal way of drug trafficking for raising money but because of the strict laws of interdiction, now they switched the way of cyber crime to attack the banks world wide to raise money.

~ It is not for the first time that the hackers from North Korea are involved in such kind of cyber crime. In past, some of the South government's important websites including air force website, subway system, nuclear reactors,etc. were hacked by the North Korean government-backed attackers in Pyongyang.
