Amaya Toman Ucwaningo selukhombisile ukuthi iNorth Korea ithanda ukusebenzisa izisetshenziswa ze-Apple ekuhlaselweni kwayo okunedumela ku-inthanethi. Yize kunezijeziso ezinzima zokuhweba, uhulumeni waseNyakatho Korea uthole indlela yokuthola ubuchwepheshe nemishini ezinkampanini ezinamagama amakhulu njenge-Apple, iMicrosoft, nokunye. Inkampani Kuqoshwe Ikusasa, inkampani ye-cybersecurity, ithole ukuthi i-iPhone X, Windows 10 amakhompyutha nokunye kudume kakhulu eNyakatho Korea. Kodwa-ke, inqwaba yehadiwe endala nayo iyasetshenziswa, njenge-iPhone 4s.
Nakuba unswinyo eNyakatho Korea ngokwethiyori kuvimbela inqwaba yezinkampani ezaziwayo ekuthumeleni izimpahla namasevisi kanye nokuhweba, izwe ngaleyo ndlela lihlukanisiwe ngokwezomnotho nangokwezobuchwepheshe. Kodwa uhulumeni waseNorth Korea uqhamuke nendlela yokuthola ubuchwepheshe e-United States, South Korea nakwamanye amazwe. Izijeziso zohwebo zingagwenywa ngokusebenzisa amakheli amanga nobunikazi namanye amaqhinga - umbiko weRecord Future uphakamisa ukuthi iNorth Korea ivame ukusebenzisa izakhamizi zayo ezihlala phesheya ngalezi zinhloso.
"Abathengisi be-electronics, abantu baseNyakatho Korea abahlala phesheya, kanye nenethiwekhi enkulu yobugebengu bombuso kaKim yenza kube lula ukudluliselwa kobuchwepheshe baseMelika nsuku zonke komunye wemibuso yengcindezelo kakhulu emhlabeni," kusho iRecord Future. Ukwehluleka ukuvimbela iNorth Korea ekutholeni ubuchwepheshe baseMelika obuyindida kuholela "ekuphazamisekeni, ekuphazamiseni nasekucekeleni phansi ukusebenza kwe-cyber," ngokusho kwe-ejensi. Iningi lamadivayisi asetshenzisiwe atholwe ngokungemthetho yiNorth Korea, kodwa amanye ama-hardware atholwe ngeziteshi ezisemthethweni. Phakathi kuka-2002 no-2017, "amakhompyutha nemikhiqizo kagesi" ebiza ngaphezu kuka-$430 yathunyelwa ezweni.
Igalari yezithombe
Eminyakeni yakamuva, iNorth Korea isidume kakhulu ngokuhlaselwa kwayo nge-inthanethi. Phakathi kwezinye izinto, kuhlotshaniswa, ngokwesibonelo, ihlazo le-WannaCry ransomware noma ukuhlaselwa kwe-Sony ne-PlayStation ngo-2014. Ayikho indlela okwamanje yokuvimbela ukutholwa okungekho emthethweni kobuchwepheshe baseMelika kanye neNingizimu Korea - kodwa iRecord Future ibika ukuthi "North IKorea izokwazi ukusebenza ukuze iqhubeke ngosizo lobuchwepheshe baseNtshonalanga."
Kubonakala sengathi imikhiqizo yama-apula ithandwa kakhulu eNyakatho Korea. UKim Jong Un uvame ukubanjwa ezisebenzisa, futhi omakhalekhukhwini abenziwa ezweni bavame ukukopisha ngokusobala ihardware ye-Apple kanye nesoftware.
Ngokweqiniso ngikuthola kuxaka ukuzama ukuvimba umuntu ukuthi athenge i-over-the-counter ifoni njengokungathi ithangi noma indiza yokulwa.
