Roughly $78 million of the funds were stolen from South Korea, according to the report.<\/p>\n<h2>The missile program<\/h2>\n<p>According to the NIS, the Covid-19 pandemic affected North Korea much worse than all other nations in the country since its economy had already been weakened by the United Nations (UN) sanctions. Therefore, the country turned to illicit activities like crypto hacking so that it could provide funds to support its economy as well as its nuclear program.<\/p>\n<p>The conclusion was drawn due to the fact that North Korea carried out a record number of missile tests during 2022 despite its worsening economic condition. According to <a href=\"https:\/\/gizmodo.com\/north-korea-stole-1-billion-cryptocurrency-2022-1849922334\">numbers<\/a> from November, the country had carried out 34 tests that included 88 missiles in total.<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, the NIS said that it is expecting North Korea to increase its attacks on South Korea in 2023 and focus more on stealing advanced technologies as well as confidential information on South Korea.<\/p>\n<p>An NIS spokesperson <a href=\"https:\/\/en.yna.co.kr\/view\/AEN20221222005900325?section=nk\/nk\">said<\/a>:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;Marking the third year under its five-year economic development plan in 2023, the North is expected to be bent on stealing key technologies, and collecting diplomatic and security intelligence in a bid to meet its policy goals,&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Reportedly, some experts claim that North Korea is looking to leverage its military power to relieve itself from the global sanctions.<\/p>\n<h2>North Korean hackers<\/h2>\n<p>North Korea's re-investment of the stolen funds is not news to the world. In February, a <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/report-north-korea-funded-missile-program-using-stolen-crypto\/\">report<\/a> submitted to the UN security council also claimed that the country was using funds stolen via crypto hacks to finance its nuclear missile program.<\/p>\n<p>In March, a cybersecurity company published a <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/north-korea-using-hackers-to-raise-revenue-via-crypto-heists\/\">report<\/a> proving that North Korea has been using crypto hackers to raise funds.<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, a Chainalysis <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/mixer-usage-sees-all-time-high-thanks-to-nation-affiliate-cybercriminals\/\">report<\/a> from July revealed that North Korean hackers have significantly improved their activities in the second quarter of 2022.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_283830\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-283830\" style=\"width: 1260px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-283830\" src=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/Quarterly-illicit.png\" alt=\"Quarterly illicit cryptocurrency received by mixers\" width=\"1260\" height=\"622\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/Quarterly-illicit.png 1260w, https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/Quarterly-illicit-300x148.png 300w, https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/Quarterly-illicit-1024x505.png 1024w, https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/Quarterly-illicit-768x379.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1260px) 100vw, 1260px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-283830\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Quarterly illicit cryptocurrency received by mixers<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Other <a href=\"https:\/\/coincub.com\/ranking\/top-5-countries-for-crypto-crime-2022\/\">studies<\/a> have also shown that North Korea is leading in crypto crimes on a global scale, with the infamous Lazarus Group being the most famous one.
