Cyeber Attack on Binance : $6.3 Billion Binance Hacked by North Korean Hackers

The world's largest cryptocurrency exchange 'Binance' has become a victim of the biggest and deadliest cyber attack ever. According to information provided by Binance, digital assets worth approximately 6.3 billion US dollars (approximately 4.7 billion pounds) have been hacked. This is considered the biggest cyber theft in the history of financial and digital technology. Although the company has managed to block about half of the potentially affected amount, a large portion of the remainder is still under the control of the hackers.

North Korea's state-sponsored hacker group is suspected of involvement in the hacking of the world's largest cryptocurrency exchange Binance, worth $6.3 billion. Two major blockchain analysis companies have stated that strong evidence has been found of the involvement of a North Korean hacker group in this incident.

Blockchain research institutions TRM Labs and Chainalysis have identified North Korea's 'Lazarus Group', also known as 'TraderTrader', as the main suspect in the hacking. Both organizations have expressed high confidence in the involvement of the North Korean group based on available information.

According to the BBC, this incident is the latest major cyber attack linked to North Korea. North Korea, one of the poorest countries in the world, has very limited internet access. However, the government has been accused of adopting a strategy to raise financial resources through cybercrime.
