Three individuals were accused of helping North Korea fund its weapons program by securing remote IT jobs in America and sending the money to North Korea. The scheme involved someone pretending to be the face of the job applicant while the actual work was done by someone in North Korea. The article highlights the need for better background checks, secure connections, and asset management to prevent such schemes. The use of AI to clean up clumsily developed websites and improve phishing attempts is also discussed.
