Ripple has expanded its initiative to share intelligence on North Korean cyber threats, with Coinbase joining as a key strategic partner to bolster industry-wide defenses. This expansion comes as total DeFi hack losses linked to North Korea have reached a staggering $577 million. The initiative is now proactively targeting a projected 2026 hack wave expected to involve the Drift protocol, following previous threats against KelpDAO. Facilitated through the Crypto ISAC, Ripple utilizes AI-powered technology to provide real-time responses to sophisticated social engineering tactics. The company noted that state-sponsored attackers have increasingly shifted their focus toward long-term human infiltration rather than immediate technical exploits. By integrating Coinbase, Ripple seeks to strengthen collective resistance against organized threats targeting the industry's workforce and decentralized infrastructure.
