Two U.S. nationals were sentenced for operating a multi-year "laptop farm" that enabled DPRK-linked operators to remotely access over 100 U.S. companies’ laptops using stolen identities and KVM switches; the scheme laundered millions through shell companies, resulted in source code theft and exfiltration of ITAR-controlled defense-related AI data, caused substantial remediation costs, and triggered a nationwide DOJ crackdown and a $5M State Department reward for additional fugitives.
