  • Entry in the lazarus.group DPRK IT-worker registry, which asserts that these accounts belong to one operator. The registry publishes no methodology, so this is recorded as its claim and not as a finding of this site. Its evidence links and its cross-references to other operators in the same registry are deliberately not reproduced as indicators.

  • Read on 12 September 2026 from the page cited. ethprotector is one of the names the reporting already files this operator under, and the URL appears inside a researcher’s note this site already quotes, but it had never been recorded as an indicator of its own. The profile is a bug-bounty account on Immunefi: a member since 8 April 2024, ranked 520th all time, total earnings of $13,697, one bug-bounty report rated high, and two audit-competition reports. A DPRK IT-worker persona paid through a whitehat bounty platform is being paid by the projects it reports bugs to, under a name and a payment route of its own choosing, which is a different funding path from the salaried contract work this dataset is mostly about. Nothing here establishes that the reports were not genuine security work.
