The Labyrinth Chollima hacking group, allegedly operating on behalf of North Korea, has been identified by CrowdStrike as one of several groups responsible for cyber intrusions. The group is believed to work for North Korea's Reconnaissance General Bureau (RGB), its primary foreign intelligence agency.
Labyrinth Chollima is one of the most productive hacking groups in North Korea and is said to be responsible for some of the boldest and most disruptive cyber intrusions in the isolated country.
Cryptocurrency theft has resulted in a significant loss: the blockchain analytics company, Chainalysis, reported that last year, the group associated with North Korea stole around USD 1.7 billion worth of digital cash through various hacking activities.
