Other company was, indeed, AI Startup #528532.
We're in a niche, extremely boring industry. We have an extremely small client base. We do line-of-business/sales management applications for something akin to like... light switches and light fixtures. The most exclusive thing we have access to is wholesale pricing from manufacturers. We don't handle payments. The extent of PII we handle is "name and email" from when someone emails out a quote.
We are the epitome of uninteresting to a foreign actor. Being "uninteresting" apparently does not disqualify you.
We also do not hire overseas (the applicant claimed to be from California) and offer a good US wage. We weren't targeted or vulnerable because we were being "greedy".
You do hire remote workers, don't you?
If you had to hire workers in office, would you have space and infrastructure for all of them?
From my perspective, this would solve the issue. Unless you're worried about in-person north korea spies.
I don't know man, seems like you're living in some cold war mind trap or something.
