Security experts are investigating the possibility of a connection between the recent spate of WannaCry ransomware attacks and the notorious Lazarus Group, which has been linked to North Korea. Google researcher Neel Mehta posted an intriguing message to Twitter yesterday: a string of numbers and letters followed by #WannaCryptAttribution. Kaspersky Lab then confirmed in a blog post that the tweet in question is of two samples with shared code: a WannaCry cryptor sample from February 2017 which looks like a very early variant and a Lazarus Group sample from February 2015.
