N. Korea-linked hackers target 30 S. Korean servers: report

North Korea-linked hackers, believed to be affiliated with the Lazarus Group, have identified 30 servers in South Korea as potential targets for cyberattacks, according to a report by cybersecurity firm Cyfirma. The list of 216 servers, spanning 10 countries, includes government agencies, banks, telecommunications companies, and infrastructure providers.

The Lazarus Group's objectives are suspected to be financial gain and espionage. While being on the target list does not indicate a successful breach, Cyfirma advises administrators to install security patches and restart affected programs to mitigate potential risks. The United States and Japan together accounted for 44.4% of the total targeted servers.
