Why does it matter?

Integrating AI into cyber operations could enhance attacks' speed, volume, and effectiveness, increasing cyber vulnerabilities worldwide.

Regarding North Korea, the nation's extensive history of reported hacking is a source of concern. In the last five years alone, North Korean hackers managed to steal an estimated 1.5 trillion won (equivalent to$1.2 billion) in cryptocurrency and other virtual assets, which occurred before the emergence of generative AI.
