Report: North Korea May Be Behind Sony Pictures Hack After All


Despite the FBI saying just a few days ago that there was "no attribution to North Korea at this point," ABC News is reporting that federal cyber-security sources "close to the investigation" have indeed confirmed that the FBI does have reason to believe that North Korea may be involved in some capacity after all.


Specifically, the sources are citing evidence suggesting that the initial breach "was routed through a number of infected computers in various locations overseas, including computers in Singapore, Thailand, Italy, Bolivia, Poland and Cyprus." All of which may have been perpetrated by an elite North Korean hacking unit known as Bureau 21.
