North Korea has systematically developed a sophisticated cyber warfare capability by recruiting and training the country’s most talented young hackers, according to defectors and security experts. The secretive programme has been linked to major attacks on cryptocurrency exchanges including Binance, making it a unique national security concern. Unlike other nations, North Korea’s approach involves identifying gifted children early and grooming them exclusively for cyber operations, creating what experts describe as an unparalleled organised hacking army.
