The CEO of a leading compliant platform recently disclosed during a discussion with industry insiders that a hacking group from North Korea is actively infiltrating American tech companies, with tactics including targeted attempts to bribe technical support personnel. This threat emergence is directly related to the widespread adoption of remote work—distributed teams have blurred security boundaries, creating opportunities for social engineering attacks. Hackers conduct targeted activities against individual employees in an attempt to bypass traditional security defenses. This serves as a reminder to the entire industry that firewalls alone are far from sufficient; employee security awareness training and internal risk control systems are equally crucial.

Bribing technical support? Haha, the old social engineering trick... What’s really scary is that the company is still bragging about how amazing their risk control is, yet employees fall for a phishing email. Remote work has completely become a hacker's hunting ground, what blurred boundaries? It’s basically a sieve.

North Korean hackers have started bribing employees? In this day and age, security really relies on personal integrity. --- Remote work is indeed a double-edged sword, the boundaries have become so blurred. --- To put it bluntly, no matter how strong the firewall is, it can't stop the bullets from its own people. --- So the problem lies with the individuals, not the technology? --- Firewalls are outdated now; the trend is "preventing employees". --- That's why my company still insists on the office system; it seems to be the right choice. --- Employee training really needs to be taken seriously; otherwise, one day we might be hollowed out by insiders. --- Bribing IT support is really brilliant... so clever. --- The cost of distributed teams, security costs are skyrocketing. --- Why does it feel like hackers understand social engineering better than we do?

Bribing technical support staff is really a brilliant move, showing that social engineering has now evolved to this level... In the era of remote work, people's hearts are the easiest to manipulate.

Remote work is a double-edged sword. It's indeed hard to defend against social engineering tactics; bribing employees is much easier than breaking through firewalls.

Remote work has truly become a breakthrough point for hackers—bribing employees? That's a ruthless tactic. Firewalls are no longer effective.

Remote work is really a double-edged sword; when boundaries become blurred, hackers come in.
