据 Drop Site News 报道，区块链公司 Consensys 意外聘用了一名与朝鲜有关联的软件开发人员。该人员化名 “Tyler Knapp”，通过第三方服务商推荐加入 Consensys，曾参与 MetaMask 钱包相关代码开发，包括加密资产与法币转换功能。Consensys 表示，在发现安全风险后已立即终止其访问权限，并展开调查，确认未发生资产或数据泄露、未部署恶意代码，也未影响用户安全。公司随后向执法机构报告事件，并审查第三方工程外包流程。近年来，朝鲜相关人员被发现通过伪造身份进入美国软件公司获取远程开发岗位，试图窃取信息或渗透软件供应链。wublock123.com/new
