North Korea vs. Inche on Airport · 01.09.2011
The south Korean police suspects that the North’s Reconnaissance General Bureau is behind a technical glitch in the flight data process or that paralyzed airtraffic control at Inche on International Airport for nearly an hour last Sept.15. It was presumably enabled by a botnet of south Korean computers, which have been infected by a compromised pc gaming version, distributed by a southKorean citizen, which was instructed by the Reconnaissance General Bureau of the Norths Military.
