DDOSing North Korea would actually be the good kind of sanction, since only the elite in the country have internet access and no one else does. Instead of denying them basics like food so that the poorer members of society have to eat grass while the leaders of the country feast.
I imagine Kimmy not being able to watch youtube for two consecutive hours is the most harm the United States has done to the royal family in quite some time.
[QUOTE=Awesomecaek;46772373]Considering the probable strength of North Korea's infrastructure, it might just be Guardians of Peace fucking with both sides, trying to stir as much shit up as they can.
I hope these shenanigans don't escalate into something serious.[/QUOTE]Just like the plot of "Tomorrow Never dies"
[QUOTE=EditOutJ;46772785]Can't really imagine what internet would be like in NK.
You just log onto the propaganda box to get your leader's messages streamed straight into you home on demand.[/QUOTE]
youve got your red star os on your computer and use your dial up modem to access the super information highway!
i won't lie, my first thought was 'north korea has internet?' but then i realised how stupid that is.
Pretty scary how quickly media outlets and even some in infosec assumed the attack was carried out by North Korea and ran with it. Spoofing attacks from nation-states [url=https://twitter.com/MalwareJake/status/546866073388466178]isn't difficult[/url] when you have money and threat intelligence materials to work with and plenty of APTs fall into that category these days, and the official party [url=http://••••••••1whwORA]line[/url] for this whole thing is pretty lame.
And only a total of 9 Norther Koreans will be effected.
North Korean internet is probably mostly internal communications between government entities. Like how the internet was initially conceptualized in the first place.
This is going to be like the Cold War all over again, except instead of espionage, we DDoS NK and they DDoS us repeatedly.
