Despite sanctions and closed borders, money and materials for Kim Jong-un’s nuclear weapons programme are still finding their way into North Korea, aided by hackers. Where could it lead?
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.

Great season. Please let there be season 3. Great podcast, thank you

[@BBCWorldService]

Let's hope so - we want more too!

[@talldarkstrangerpr]

That was so good. Season Three pretty please!

[@Yotrek]

Excellent investigative journalism. Thank you. I’m conflicted. This podcast is a rare example of simultaneously wanting a season three and not wanting a season three.

[@AbiodunSam]

Great work!! This series is really amazing. Can't wait seeing the season 3.

[@lucasdashcam2925]

[@Vetsolo]

Always a delight to listen 👂

[@zapfanzapfan]

Good drone shots of the missile test!

[@chikachika5361]

Does this episode end finally? I cannot accept this fact. The BBC should be able to create the next episode. 🎉

[@fraumahler5934]

Excellent reporting

[@zaire2400]

I get excited every time i see a new episode.

[@cherylerome-beatty4677]

Amazing info!

[@akhyer1500]

If there was anything more annoying than a baby crying in an 8 hour flight sitting next to you, is the audio theme of this podcast 😖

[@jamesbondino2575]

What doco are u listening 2 dalmArc loll - this stuff is amazing

[@felipecool598]

Why the square spiral thing?

[@user-rh6ru5oz2o]

An intelligence test to determine who is too dumb to figure out what a podcast is

[@jamesbondino2575]

How do we hack North Koreas net or the hacker hotel in china

[@JDesq]

FYI: No country ANYWHERE puts real missiles etc in their military parades, they are use mock-ups that look somewhat similar out of various materials . Imagine the utter carnage if something happened , a crash , sabotage or drone attack ... Just because they have some mock-ups of rockets on trucks docent mean they exist outside of their imagination, u may as well analyze the rockets in cartoon .Great video FAIL 🤣🤣

This is the worst documentry, no video no photo all talk. This should be on radio not tv period

[@user-rh6ru5oz2o]

You should get some picture books. They are more your level

[@miracleamoah78]

⁠@@user-rh6ru5oz2o😂😂😂 ikr he should

[@caseyjones6245]

Someone needs to go away and look up the definition of a podcast before making useless negative comments

[@idrisali6854]

The BBC World service is actually a radio station 😂😂😂

[@user-xr6bm2cu8c]

This is crap.
