Kim Jong Un, the only leader to test nuclear weapons this century, spent most of Trump’s first year perfecting his arsenal.
Since 2011, he has fired 90+ missiles and four nukes, more than what his father and grandfather launched over a period of 27 years. https://t.co/L1mu4gcGf0

There was a lot of weak sauce gripes coming from the INFOSEC industry about the malware drops in VirusTotal by @CNMF_VirusAlert on Sunday. However, as mature professionals have suggested, it was one act in the execution of a greater strategy. https://t.co/QNBegmlueI pic.twitter.com/IvkmEShzhK

I'm sorry about the hacks that took money from y'all, these hacking groups do whatever they want @Plaid_USA @plaid_trump If you could loan me money, maybe a small loan of a million dollars (or billion), to help me with space rockets that would be cool. https://t.co/NMiuQiy8HD

3곳은 북한 정찰총국 해킹조직(Lazarus)으로 그룹명만 세분화한 것이고, 블루노로프와 안다리엘은 라자루스 그룹으로 기억하셔도 무관합니다.

지난 8월까지도 라자루스는 한국의 비트코인 관계자를 지속 공격하고 있는것이 공식확인되었습니다.https://t.co/DD1XSGPvq2https://t.co/BkBL3KANsu
