Deep dive case study of the kind of open source contributions and #GitHub astroturfing that North Korean hackers employ to try get jobs as devs at crypto companies, this time in an attempt to infiltrate #onlyDust.

tl;dr DPRK hackers use contributions to FOSS projects to build cred, after which, armed with AI video avatars, they try to leverage the cred into success in interviews for blockchain development jobs.

I've said it before but i'll say it again: the one real upside of crypto is that the industry draws close to 100% of the incoming fire from sophisticated #DPRK threat actors like Lazarus Group who would otherwise be hacking banks.
