But North Korea was not like the others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In the cyber realm, the difference between smaller countries and larger nation-states is that the smaller states don\u2019t have as much to lose, he said, and North Korea is smaller. \u201cThey don\u2019t have nearly as much to lose as, say, China,\u201d said Hypponen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When breaking down cyberattack behaviors from nation-state actors, he said, they typically fall into two categories: spying and sabotage. In this realm, the North Koreans set themselves apart.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cNorth Korea has done spying and sabotage, but they\u2019ve also done theft,\u201d Hypponen said. \u201cThere is no other government on this planet that would resort to stealing from other governments to fix their budget deficit. But that\u2019s exactly what North Korea has done.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To do so, North Korean actors have relied on cyberattacks on financial institutions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThey target the traditional financial sector [and] they target especially cryptocurrency exchanges because they want money which is &#8230; untrackable, which cryptocurrencies are,\u201d Hypponen said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In fact, just three days ago, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/article\/us-northkorea-cyber-un\/north-korea-took-2-billion-in-cyber-attacks-to-fund-weapons-program-u-n-report-idUSKCN1UV1ZX\" target=_blank>Reuters <\/a>reported that a confidential United Nations report shows that the North Korean government has funded its nuclear program by stealing $2 billion from banks and cryptocurrency exchanges.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Stealing money from the private sector is not the only way North Korea is an outlier when it comes to nation-state cyber behaviors. Hypponen also pointed to the North Korean government\u2019s response to Sony Pictures\u2019 2014 movie \u201cThe Interview,\u201d in which Kim Jong-Un is assassinated. In response to the film, North Korean-backed hackers launched a cyberattack on Sony.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWe haven\u2019t seen any other government that would launch attacks against foreign private companies in order to protest against movies,\u201d Hypponen said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Smaller nation-states don\u2019t worry larger actors in cyberspace, Hypponen said, but North Korea is again different because of real-world implications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cIt\u2019s important because they\u2019re nuclear,\u201dHypponen said. \u201cAny other country like this isn\u2019t really a problem at the world scale unless they have access to weapons of mass destruction.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cNuclear weapons change the world,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>North Korean hackers go beyond spying and
