North Korea denies responsibility for Sony cyberattack

United Nations: North Korea had nothing to do with a devastating cyberattack against Sony Pictures, a North Korean UN diplomat said on Friday after the US government blamed Pyongyang for the incident.

"DPRK (North Korea) is not part of this," a North Korean diplomat told Reuters on condition of anonymity. He declined to comment further.

The FBI issued a statement on Friday saying North Korea was responsible for the cyberattack.
