The UK, alongside international allies, has exposed a global cyber espionage campaign orchestrated by North Korean state-sponsored actors. The National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC), part of GCHQ, issued an advisory on July 25, 2024, revealing the activities of the cyber threat group Andariel, linked to DPRK’s Reconnaissance General Bureau (RGB) 3rd Bureau. Key Points: - Targeted Sectors: Defence, aerospace, nuclear, engineering, medical, and energy sectors have been primary targets for information theft, including contract specifications, design drawings, and project details. - Ransomware Attacks: Andariel has launched ransomware attacks against US healthcare organisations to extort payments and fund further espionage activities. - Ongoing Threat: The NCSC assesses that Andariel's activities pose a continuous threat to critical infrastructure globally. - Mitigation Advice: The advisory provides technical details and mitigation strategies to help organisations defend against these attacks. It emphasizes the importance of protecting sensitive information and intellectual property. - Paul Chichester, NCSC Director of Operations, stated, “The global cyber espionage operation exposed today highlights the lengths DPRK actors are willing to go to advance their military and nuclear programmes. Critical infrastructure operators must protect their sensitive information to prevent theft and misuse.” The advisory is co-sealed by several international agencies, including the US FBI, US Cyber National Mission Force, US CISA, US NSA, and South Korea’s National Intelligence Service.

Global security agencies issued a cybersecurity advisory on Thursday, highlighting #cyberespionage activities linked to the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea (DPRK)’s Reconnaissance General Bureau (RGB) 3rd Bureau, located in Pyongyang and Sinuiju. The bureau encompasses a state-sponsored cyber group known as #Andariel, #OnyxSleet (formerly PLUTONIUM), #DarkSeoul, #SilentChollima, and Stonefly/Clasiopa. The group primarily targets #defense, #aerospace, #nuclear, and #engineering sectors to acquire sensitive, classified technical information and intellectual property. These activities are aimed at advancing the DPRK’s military and nuclear capabilities. “The actors gain initial access through widespread exploitation of web servers through known vulnerabilities in software, such as #Log4j, to deploy a web shell and gain access to sensitive information and applications for further exploitation,” according to the advisory issued by the U.S. Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), Cyber National Mission Force (CNMF), Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA), United States Department of Defense Cyber Crime Center (DC3), National Security Agency (NSA) and Republic of Korea’s National Intelligence Service (NIS), Republic of Korea’s National Police Agency (NPA), and the U.K.’s National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC). https://lnkd.in/gpr4aBzk
