Kraken: Recently identified a North Korean hacker attempting to infiltrate the team by applying for a job
Foresight News reported that Kraken recently discovered a North Korean hacker attempting to infiltrate their team by applying for Kraken's job. The suspicious candidate's name when they joined was different from the name on their resume and was quickly changed. Even more suspicious is that this candidate occasionally switches voices. Kraken received a list of email addresses related to the hacker organization, with one address matching the candidate's email address for Kraken application. After obtaining this intelligence, Kraken's team conducted an investigation using open-source intelligence gathering (OSINT) methods. In the final round of interviews, the team requires candidates to verify their location, present government issued identification cards, and even recommend some local restaurants in their city. The interviewer was flustered and caught off guard, ultimately proving that this was not a legitimate applicant, but an imposter attempting to invade our system.
