Today, CISA and partners released a joint Cybersecurity Advisory (CSA), North Korea Cyber Group Conducts Global Espionage Campaign to Advance Regime’s Military and Nuclear Programs. The advisory was crafted to highlight cyber espionage activity associated with the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea (DPRK)’s Reconnaissance General Bureau (RGB) 3rd Bureau based in Pyongyang and Sinuiju. The group primarily targets defense, aerospace, nuclear, and engineering entities to obtain sensitive and classified technical information and intellectual property to advance the regime’s military and nuclear programs and ambitions.

All critical infrastructure organizations are encouraged to review the advisory and implement the recommended mitigations. For more information on North Korean state-sponsored threat actor activity, see CISA’s North Korea Cyber Threat Overview and Advisories page.
