North Korean tyrant Kim Jong-un is set to unleash an army of new generation computer hackers in the West in a bid to destabilise financial institutions
There are reports that Kim has recruited graduates from a top military academy trained in cyber warfare to move abroad. This is for the sole purpose of raking in cash for the regime by mounting raids on financial institutions.
These recruits are to work in plum jobs in North Korean embassies abroad as part of their cover.
The secretive state has missions in most major countries – including the UK – and the spies will additionally keep tabs on defectors.
According to Website Daily NK:
“The North Korean authorities are looking towards young graduates of prestigious Mangyongdae Revolutionary Academy's 'hackers' program to recruit the country’s next generation of foreign agents.
"Distinct from the recruitment of domestically-stationed anti-espionage agents from Security University and Political Security University, the individuals recruited from the Mangyongdae Revolutionary Academy will be stationed abroad."
