Expressing its gravest concern at the intercontinental ballistic missile launch by
the Democratic People's Republic of Korea ("the DPRK") on 24 March 2022, as well

humanitarian concerns of the international community and expressing great concern

diverting critically needed resources away from the people in the DPRK who have
great unmet needs, regretting that the DPRK has prevented vitally needed
humanitarian aid from reaching its most vulnerable populations, especially during the
COVID-19 pandemic, further regretting that the DPRK seeks to divert resources from
its agricultural and medical sectors for its unlawful nuclear weapons and ballistic
missile programs, thereby depriving the people in the DPRK of adequate food,
medicine, and medical treatments, and emphasizing the importance that the DPRK
return to unconditional and meaningful dialogue toward a peaceful, diplomatic and
political solution to the situation,
Expressing its gravest concern that the DPRK's ongoing nuclear- and ballistic

custom and commonly known malware for espionage and destructive purposes, and
conduct financially motivated operations. One of the Lazarus Group's objectives is to
gain access to sensitive military and government networks, and private sector
networks across a range of industries. Information gleaned through these accesses
inform the DPRK's ability to circumvent sanctions and violate relevant Security
Council resolutions. In 2020, the Lazarus group targeted critical infrastructure in
India, a part of targeting aeronautics and defence sectors using "DTrack" malware.
Furthermore in 2020, the Lazarus Group conducted cyber operations against German
and Russian defence companies as well as Russian energy and information technology
sectors, which was a part of a cybercampaign called "ThreatNeedle". In March 2021
the Lazarus group conducted cyber activity from the DPRK against Japanese
organizations. The group primarily used spear phishing tactics and perpetrated 350
individual attacks against one Japanese government institution alone during 2021. In
April 2021, the Lazarus group used backdoor malware called "Vyveva" against a
South African Freight and logistics firm. The malware, "Vyveva" is capable of
exfiltrating files and modifying file stamps through the utilization of the dark web
TOR platform for command and control. The access on the movement of goods
enables the DPRK to navigate sanctions effectively and the information enables other
hackers to deploy ransomware to generate revenue.
