Executive summary: Two U.S. nationals ran domestic "laptop farms" that intercepted corporate-issued laptops, installed unauthorized remote desktop tools, and allowed DPRK operatives to remotely access nearly 70 U.S. companies' networks; the operation generated about $1.2M for DPRK actors and caused over $1.5M in remediation costs to victims, and both defendants received 18-month prison sentences and forfeitures.
