North Korea’s deputy U. N. envoy said on Friday “it is ridiculous” to link Pyongyang with the WannaCry “ransomware” cyber attack that started to sweep around the globe a week ago and has infected more than 300,000 computers in 150 nations
WannaCry threatens to lock out victims who have not paid a sum of $300 to $600 within one week of infection. French researchers said on Friday they had found a last-chance way for technicians to save Windows files encrypted by WannaCry.
“Relating to the cyber attack, linking to the DPRK, it is ridiculous, ” North Korea’s Deputy U. N. Ambassador Kim In Ryong told a news conference. North Korea is also known as the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea (DPRK) .
“Whenever something strange happens, it is the stereotype way of the United States and the hostile forces that kick off noisy anti-DPRK campaign deliberately linking with DPRK, ” Kim said.
