After days of kinda-sorta confirmations, the Federal Bureau of Investigation just officially stated it believes that North Korea was indeed involved with a gigantic Sony hack that saw personal information, unreleased movies and thousands of emails leaked online. According to release issued by the Bureau, an investigation revealed "significant overlap" between the means of attack against Sony and previous hacks conducted by North Korea. Earlier reports also suggested that the FBI would identify China as a potential participant (either directly or through use of its network infrastructure) in the attack, but no mention of the country was made in this first announcement.
This is a developing story, please refresh for updates.
