AGP Executive Report
Last update: 2 hours agoNuclear Geology: A new Science study says North Korea’s 2017 underground test at Punggye-ri (Mt. Mantap) reactivated long-dormant fault zones, with seismic activity rising to about 1,330+ earthquakes since 2017 and continuing to intensify through 2025. Defense Diplomacy: North Korea’s vice defense minister Kim Kang-il used China’s Xiangshan Forum to defend the nuclear program as “self-defensive,” while warning against U.S.-allied drills and pushing for “strategic communication” with Beijing. Drone Reliability: A separate editorial flags repeated drone demo crashes in South Korea as a reminder that real-world testing still lags behind export ambitions. Cybercrime Tech: Chainalysis reports a 420% surge in malware “dead drops” stored on public blockchains, with state-linked activity— including groups tied to North Korea—driving much of the growth, helped by open-source AI lowering barriers for attackers. Security Ops: A Pentagon memo shifts commercial drone/autonomous procurement toward the Defense Innovation Unit (DIU), making it the main entry point for unmanned tech partnerships.
