As a cyber attack threatens the Games in PyeongChang in 2018, fingers point to North Korea. But it has joined forces with its neighbour and even sent a team. Why would they want to sabotage it? What’s going on?
The hackers are back. In fact, the cyber criminals never went away. The Lazarus Heist Season 2 tells the story of the theft of billions of dollars around the globe. Investigators say a secretive, elite North Korean hacking ring is responsible. Nicknamed the Lazarus Group, it’s claimed they are becoming more ambitious, more audacious and more successful. North Korea says it has nothing to do with these cybercrimes, saying the United States is making these allegations to try and tarnish its image.
The Lazarus Heist podcast is presented by cybercrime investigative journalist Geoff White and veteran foreign correspondent and renowned North Korea expert Jean Lee.

[@archibaldsamu5873]

if I was a judge..I would need more evidence..serious testimony and capture of some of the hacker slaves..surely with all the power and resources of the West and considering that the hackers operate out of North Korea..they can get a few...

Ist thing i did is to re-watch the N.korean cheering squad 😂😂 the thing that was going on pitch the cheering wasn't related at all , it's programmed to perform. Feeling sad for the ladies, masked & manipulated!!

BBC clearly has Olympics videos rights, why on earth its not a documentary but this without images? Im out!

[@user-rh6ru5oz2o]

Because this is a podcast series

[@archibaldsamu5873]

While I am not denying that things could actually be what the podcast us saying they are..everything seems to be circumstantial to me..bordering on Western propaganda..these are serious accusations..surely BBC can come up with concrete evidence
