Lazarus is presented as a North Korean state-backed umbrella of related teams that blends espionage, disruptive attacks, cryptocurrency theft, supply chain compromise, and IT-worker infiltration. The article highlights major attributed incidents including the Sony Pictures breach, WannaCry, the Harmony Horizon Bridge theft, and the 2025 Bybit theft, where attackers abused a third-party wallet provider and laundered funds through THORChain. It also describes fake recruiter lures, poisoned npm/PyPI packages, deepfake-assisted remote hiring, and laptop farms as access paths into companies. Businesses are advised to harden hiring checks, developer workflows, transaction signing, phishing-resistant MFA, and outbound exfiltration monitoring.
