North Korea's senior leadership has been exploiting loopholes in international sanctions to obtain the U.S. technology that Pyongyang uses to conduct “destructive cyber operations,” according to a global cyber threat intelligence company. Recorded Future, based in Massachusetts, found that while export bans and restrictions are somewhat effective in keeping North Korea from acquiring technology for its nuclear weapons program, sanctions fail when it comes to regulating computer products from entering into North Korea. The report calls for a “globally robust unified effort to impose comprehensive sanctions” on North Korea, warning that without this Pyongyang “will be able to continue its cyberwarfare operations unabated with the aid of Western technology.” The report was released days before North Korean leader Kim Jung Un and U.S. President Donald Trump are scheduled to meet in Singapore for a summit focused on ending the North's nuclear weapons program in exchange for economic incentives and security guarantees. 一家全球网络威胁情报公司说,朝鲜领导层一直利用国际制裁中的漏洞,获取美国技术,然后用于进行“网络破坏行动”。 美国麻萨诸塞州的网络公司“记录未来”(Recorded Future)发现,对朝鲜的出口禁令和限制在阻止朝鲜获得核武器技术方面还算有效,但是在限制电脑产品进入朝鲜的方面失败了。 |
