"US Doubles Reward for Info on North Korean Hackers"

The US government has increased its reward for information on North Korean state-linked hackers to $10m.  The State Department's Rewards for Justice initially offered $5M for information.  In a notice, the State Department stated, "if you have information on any individuals associated with North Korean government-linked malicious cyber groups (such as Andariel, APT38, Bluenoroff, Guardians of Peace, Kimsuky or Lazarus Group) and who are involved in targeting US critical infrastructure in violation of the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act, you may be eligible for a reward." The department is offering a Tor-based tip line so that potential informants can submit information while protecting their identity and location.
