North Korean hackers posing as recruiters stole $10.7M in crypto

  • Damage from the WaterPlum campaign is estimated at at least $10.7 million
  • More than 30,000 devices infected across over 100 countries
  • Funds and data stolen from 7,000+ crypto wallets
  • Targets include developers, web designers and Web3 experts
