North Korean hackers linked to Play ransomware attacks

Jumpy Pisces, a North Korean state-sponsored threat actor also known as Onyx Sleet or Andariel, has recently shifted its focus to ransomware attacks, experts warn.

In a recent technical analysis, researchers from Unit 42 said that while Jumpy Pisces had previously focused on cyber espionage and financial crimes, it has recently collaborated with the infamous Play Ransomware group (also known as Fiddling Scorpius).
