A new report on the cyber activities of North Korea has shocked the whole world. According to the American Cyber ​​Security firm DTEX, IT Korea’s IT workers are acting as an organized crime syndicate, some like the “La Kosa Nostra” mafia in America. The only difference is that there were five gangs there, there is only one here and that is the power of Kim Jong Un.

‘Digital soldiers’ are prepared since childhood

In North Korea, children are identified during school days. Any child who performs better in math or science is prepared to become a cyber army or IT worker. These children study in institutions like Kim Sung Il Military University and Kusmong Academy and are made from there, future hackers, coders and dark web masters are made.

Full game of ‘Bro Network’

A kind of ‘Bro Network’ runs among these workers. Old school friends give tips to each other about which project will get more money or which client will pay quietly. But the more friendly looks from outside, the more toxic from inside. Everyone has to earn dollars of their quota, otherwise the punishment is fixed.

Earning target and penalty

In 2025, North Korea doubled the target of the monthly earnings of IT workers sitting in its China. Now if a worker earns $ 5000, then he can keep only $ 200. Everyone else goes to the government. DTEX reports that these workers work for 16 hours daily, six days a week, without holiday.

Competition in team members also

Workers are divided into a team of 4-5 people and they are composed among themselves. The one who brings more dollars, gets reward or leave, who is left behind, has to bear mental stress, assault and sometimes physical punishment.

‘Cyber ​​infiltration’ on job platforms

These IT workers get jobs by creating a fake identity in big companies in America and Europe. Especially remote jobs. He has infiltrated companies using American name, fake ID and documents. As soon as there is a new job post, within 3 hours, some North Korean worker applies to it, especially in the work related to crypto or software.

Not just a job, this is a high -organized scheme

These workers not only work, but also share information with cyber hackers i.e. APT (Advanced Persistent Threat) groups. APT Groups work under the Korean Peoples Army and have stolen the crypto currency of more than $ 3 billion so far. At the same time, IT workers contribute $ 250 million to $ 600 million every year.

Survival is the real purpose

DTEX report also said that the inspiration of these workers is not an ideology, but the needs of life. Under the rule of Kim Jong Un means ‘patriotism’ means to meet the target, whatever. If someone sends less money from his quota, then he can be accused of being a traitor and he can get a complaint from his colleagues.

Network of fear, greed and violence

This entire model is based on fear, greed and violence. Just like a mafia syndicate. The only difference is that there is coding instead of guns, but the result is equally dangerous. In a photo in the report, workers are shown working in a small room, where the camera is installed on the wall, the government monitors every activity.

‘Speak something wrong about Kim’

Some US startups to identify this mafia model now ask strange questions in interviews, such as “Say something bad about Kim Jong Un.” The real North Korean workers are afraid to do this, because if their identity is revealed, the result can be fatal.

This is not just the code, the mission

This digital crime model of North Korea is far ahead of a common hacking operation. This is a mafia network, which is spread all over the world and every worker is on a mission. Earn money, stay in the system, otherwise disappear.

North Korea News: North Korean dictator Kim Jong Un recently announced that the first nuclear power -powered ballistic missile submarine (SSBN) would be built in his country. His move was seen as a major change in North Korea’s naval strength. Kim Jong called it a weapon capable of increasing nuclear power and attacking the US. But the reality turned out to be different from this.

According to experts, North Korea’s new submarine currently seems to be an attempt to remain in arms race, but technically it is far behind. Simply put, this submarine is like a twine bomb in front of the world’s most powerful navies.

Technically weak submarine

Kim Jong Un showed this submarine with great pride in a secret shipyard. North Korea’s government media claimed that it is the country’s first nuclear-managed submarine, equipped with Pukguksong-6 missiles and can attack up to 12,000 km away, that is, capable of reaching America. But defense experts say that this submarine is technically very backward and cannot stand in front of the submarines of America, Japan or South Korea.

North Korea is still away from making submarines

According to South Korean defense expert Dongkune Lee, North Korea currently does not have complete ability to create a modern ballistic missile submarine (SSBN). He said that Kim Jong’s new submarine shows the difference between his great ambitions and reality. Even before this, there was a lot of difficulty in making North Korea a submarine called “Hero Kim Kun Oak”.

Old technology, big things

According to experts, North Korea’s army is still using the old Romeo-class submarines of the Soviet Union formed in 1957. Not only this, Kim Jong’s Air Force consists of Mig-15 fighter aircraft of 1947, which have been thrown into junk by other countries. In such a situation, it is just a matter of showing to tell the new submarine of North Korea as “game changer” and the reality is far away from it.
