Inside North Korea's Global Hack Network: A Researcher Maps 1,640 Breached Companies

A Greece-based security researcher spent about two years inside North Korea–linked hackers’ servers and found evidence of 1,640 compromised companies across 57 countries, with roughly 700–800 suffering highly damaging intrusions. The attackers often lure developers with fake job offers to gain credentials and broad access, including root access to servers and AWS, targeting crypto wallets and blockchain keys. Stykas publicly names about a dozen affected organizations at Black Hat, while noting many more firms never responded, creating a risk of ongoing, widespread breaches and potential espionage or crypto theft if attackers maintain persistent access.

Android app verification rolls out in September with new store partners

Google will begin deploying its Android developer verification in September, starting in Brazil, Indonesia, Singapore and Thailand. The system will block installation of unverified apps on Google-certified devices and extend verification to trusted third-party stores such as HONOR App Market, OPlus (OPPO App Market), Samsung Galaxy Store, Palm Store, vivo's V-Appstore and Xiaomi GetApps. New APIs—the Android Developer ID Status API and the Android Developer Console API—will let developers register and manage packages from their IDEs. A July rollout will introduce limited-distribution accounts for hobbyists (no fee, up to 20 devices); August adds the advanced flow to bypass verification (with multiple confirmations and a 24-hour wait); September expands verification to the initial markets, with plans to broaden globally in 2027.
