The Human Element: Building A Trusted Workforce in the Age of DPRK Employment Fraud

Nisos has documented North Korean operatives infiltrating US companies through employment fraud at scale, with detailed research showing how Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK) cells operate in hiring processes. The investigation, released in multiple parts and covered on podcasts, examines the tactics used by suspicious candidates to gain access to organizations.

Why it matters: Security and HR teams need to understand DPRK employment fraud tactics to strengthen hiring vetting, as nation-state actors are actively targeting US company employees and systems through recruitment channels.
