Contagious Interview Campaign Compromises 30,000 Devices, Steals $10.71M in Crypto

North Korean threat actors operating the Contagious Interview campaign compromised at least 30,000 devices across more than 100 countries and stole funds or credentials from over 7,000 cryptocurrency wallets. The campaign primarily targeted individual web designers, engineers, and cryptocurrency specialists.

Why it matters: Web designers, engineers, cryptocurrency professionals, and organizations that employ them face credential theft and financial loss; practitioners should alert these groups to validate recent device activity and wallet access.
