Cybersecurity experts are pointing to North Korea for the worldwide ransomware attacks. This is because the way the hackers took hostage computers and servers across the world was alike in the ways of previous attacks from North Korea. Simon Choi, the director at South Korean anti-virus company claims that North Korea has been mining the digital money using malicious computer programs. During the attack, the believed-to-be North Korean hackers, demanded payment from victims in bitcoins to regain access to code computers. Simon Choi is one of a number of researchers around the world who has suggested a possible link between the "ransomware" known as Wanna Cry and hackers linked to North Korea. Although the evidence of the possible cyber attack from North Korea is still far from being concluded, Choi's speculation may deepen suspicions that the nuclear-armed state is responsible.
