Was North Korea Behind Sony’s Cyber Attack? | Cyberwar

[@blutobeyond]

This had a more far-reaching impact than just Sony Pictures. I lost my job at Sony Electronics in 2014 due to the financial fallout of this hack on the company as a whole. Certain Marketing departments were shut down, the NYC headquarters/flagship store was sold and moved to a smaller building, and the VAIO laptop business was sold off. Whether North Korea was 100% responsible or not, major corporations need to have better cyber security measures in place now more than ever.

I'm so sorry that you were one of the innocent victims who had their livelihoods thrown into question in the wake of this. I'd have loved to say that cyber security has improved significantly. There's certainly more awareness of it, and yet some of the critical vulnerabilities I've seen have almost convinced me that cyber security as an industry is complete myth. I couldn't say how close we are to Q-Day, as there's been some claims in the past few months that it's already upon us. What I CAN say, however, is that we're only ever as strong as our weakest link. All the remediation in the world will not fix stupid.

Fully on his side tbh. Not to mention the guy who said its from North Korea, because of two reasons. One, being because of security being spelt incorrectly like secruity, when its just because they were typing too fast and most likely accidentally pressed the letter r before u switching the letters around spelling it as secruity, and not a person who's first language isn't English thinking security is spelt secruity lol.

[@sidflores1113]

A lot of this makes sense, but there are some things that I don’t agree with. Such as at 12:57, when the guy says he doesn’t see a reason why North Korea would try and extort money; it is well known and documented that the DPRK actively steals money from various countries, due to the large amount of sanctions imposed on the country. This is one of the biggest reasons the DPRK to invests so much into its cyber capabilities. It’s been estimated the DPRK stole 600 million worth of Crypto in 2023 alone; if they were already infiltrating Sony’s networks to cause damage, why wouldn’t they attempt to extort them while they were at it? Another thing I'm kind of skeptical of is the statement at 20:00. The idea of routing internet traffic through North Korea, especially at that time seems a bit far-fetched to me. The majority of DPRK’s computers are connected to their own private network or Intranet, not to be mistaken with the internet. It is said that at this time there were only a few thousand computers in North Korea that were connected to the internet, and all of these computers were operated by high-ranking officials. I find it hard to believe typical hacker bros were able to find one or multiple of these computers, penetrate them, and conceal their presence, while simultaneously extracting data from Sony through these networks, for the amount of time needed to obtain the amount of data they were able to steal. If the DPRK didn't do it, I feel it is still most likely a nation-state that carried out the attack. I'm not an expert by any means, so if there is any information I could be overlooking or misinterpreting please let me know. www.trmlabs.com/post/north-korean-hackers-stole-600-million-in-crypto-in-2023#:~:text=After%20Sinbad%20was%20sanctioned%20by,innovation%20from%20business%20and%20governments. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kwangmyong_(network) en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_in_North_Korea#:~:text=The%20total%20number%20of%20Internet,in%20North%20Korea's%20academic%20institutions.

Wow, I can't believe your comment only got 6 likes. You literally explained the legit factual reasons why North Korea was most likely behind this. Yet this fat ogre of a computer scientist overlooked so many different things just to get off his basic premise that this was opportunistic hackers which it could be. But so narrow-minded this guy. Thank God you explained the sanctions cuz that's exactly why North Korea hacks so many companies and organizations, you name it. They've tried it. They make so much money from hacking huge enterprise because of the obvious Nato sanctions. Like c'mon this should be commonsense.

[@josephmagana6235]

I know trust in the US government is at an all time low, but it's kind of ridiculous to trust "experts" who are speculating based solely on public information and also going way beyond their skillsets (hacker speculating on the motives of the DPRK government? Really?) over the FBI who are undoubtably very familiar with North Korean cyberattacks and have no reason to lie. This story feels sensationalized and doesn't reflect well on Vice's journalism.

[@Laminar-Flow]

They have 4 IPv4 subnets lmao. You also have to realize the vast majority of NK’s cyber operatives stay outside of the country in China, Russia, and other friendly countries.

18:50(ish) Suggesting a commonly misspelling of a variable name implies the same threat actor is silly. Open source software is regularly forked and tweaked, or simply downloaded and run without modification. Software has infinite breadth and depth and no-one can understand all the software on which they depend. Hackers strive to know as many levels as they can however you won't find a single hacker out there who doesn't occasionally rely on blackbox abstractions (understanding things in terms of what they do, as opposed to how they do it) In fact Id go as far as to say that no-one who uploaded or remote-file-inclusion'ed a php shell to breach a server knew how the software worked, they only knew what it did (and even then, not all of it) This is evident by the fact that it took 9 years for the password bypassing backdoor to be discovered in the c99 shell (assuming the "beta (2005" line can be believed. The wordpress plugin "OWM Weather" accidentally released a version that said OPM instead of OWN, if two people have this software version in common are they both working for the same puppeteer?

The situation with Sony's cyber attack brought to light how interconnected and vulnerable our digital world can be. It's a reminder of the importance of robust cybersecurity measures and the need for ongoing vigilance to protect against such threats. The incident also opens up discussions on international relations and the digital battleground, where the consequences of cyber warfare are still being understood. It's crucial for individuals, corporations, and governments to collaborate in strengthening cyber defenses and to foster a safer digital environment for everyone.

I think you've done like three different videos on this so far... what's going on?

[@ElDuderinoh]

They don’t want to tackle the things going on right now because they’re involved. Vice are idiots and leftist extremist now unfortunately.

Get your inhalers ready It's a nerd war now lol

[@thisdudegotreal]

I remember thinking when this happened that North Korea was being scapegoated for a marketing campaign to promote that terrible Seth Rogan movie

[@TMoney-wt1cw]

Never underestimate the ego of a dictator. Also the Interview is the funniest movie to come out in the last decade or so, despite how other Seth Rogan movies have been average at best.

[@MagicPlants]

Absolutely amazing video! Great job!! We need more hacking docs from Vice!

[@tankki1583]

The interview with the defector is a total BS

[@JohnHughes-ip4jz]

Nerd war sounds way more badass than it should lol

[@aaron5910]

I just laughed when they said this is the voice of koreer 😂😂😂

[@a4y3n]
