Hackers Steal Personal Information from North Koreans Living in South Korea

Unidentified hackers swiped the personal information of nearly 1,000 North Koreans living in South Korea, following a breach last month of a government-funded resettlement agency’s database, Seoul officials said. Hackers obtained the names, addresses and dates of birth of some 997 North Koreans who have fled to the South, a Unification Ministry spokeswoman said.
