Why the Sony hack is unlikely to be the work of North Korea – Marc’s Security Ramblings

Something I’ve suspected all along: Marc Rogers does a great job detailing why the Sony hack probably isn’t the work of North Korea.

The attackers only latched onto “The Interview” after the media did – the film was never mentioned by GOP right at the start of their campaign. It was only after a few people started speculating in the media that this and the communication from DPRK “might be linked” that suddenly it became linked. I think the attackers both saw this as an opportunity for “lulz” and as a way to misdirect everyone into thinking it was a nation state. After all, if everyone believes it’s a nation state, then the criminal investigation will likely die. ~ Marc’s Security Ramblings
