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 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.
