Description : The Lazarus Group targets institutions such as government, \nmilitary, financial, manufacturing, publishing, media, entertainment, and international \nshipping companies, as well as critical infrastructure, using tactics such as \ncyberespio nage, data theft, monetary heists, and destructive malware operations. \nCreated by the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea (DPRK) as early as 2007, this \nmalicious cyber group is subordinate to the 110th Research Center, 3rd Bureau of the \nReconnaissance Ge neral Bureau (RGB) [ KPe031 ]. The 3rd Bureau is also known as \nthe 3rd Technical Surveillance Bureau and is responsible for many of the DPRK’s \ncyber operations. In addition to the RGB’s role as the main entity responsible for \nDPRK’s malicious cyber activitie s, the RGB also continues to be the principal DPRK \nintelligence agency and is involved in the trade of DPRK arms. Lazarus Group actors \nuse social engineering tactics against employees of target entities, deploy a variety of \ncustom and commonly known malwar e for espionage and destructive purposes, and \nconduct financially motivated operations. One of the Lazarus Group’s objectives is to \ngain access to sensitive military and government networks, and private sector \nnetworks across a range of industries. Informa tion gleaned through these accesses \ninform the DPRK’s ability to circumvent sanctions and violate relevant Security \nCouncil resolutions. In 2020, the Lazarus group targeted critical infrastructure in \nIndia, a part of targeting aeronautics and defence secto rs using “DTrack” malware. \nFurthermore in 2020, the Lazarus Group conducted cyber operations against German \nand Russian defence companies as well as Russian energy and information technology \nsectors, which was a part of a cybercampaign called “ThreatNeedle ”. In March 2021 \nthe Lazarus group conducted cyber activity from the DPRK against Japanese \norganizations. The group primarily used spear phishing tactics and perpetrated 350 \nindividual attacks against one Japanese government institution alone during 2021. In \nApril 2021, the Lazarus group used backdoor malware called “Vyveva” against a \nSouth African Freight and logistics firm. The malware, “Vyveva” is capable of \nexfiltrating files and modifying file stamps through the utilization of the dark web \nTOR platform for command and control. The access on the movement of goods \nenables the DPRK to navigate sanctions effectively and the information enables other \nhackers to deploy ransomware to generate revenue. \nb.

which expresses deep \nconcerns t hat the adverse impacts of climate change, including sea level rise, could \nhave possible security implications, and noting the Secretary General’s report of \n11 September 2009, which highlights climate change and its possible security \nimplications and ackno wledges that climate change is often viewed as exacerbating \nexisting threats, \nS/2021/990 \n \n21-18843 2/5 \n Recalling that the Security Council has repeatedly stressed the need for the UN, \nregional organisations and member states to take into consideration, as appropriate, \nthe securit

Usage Examples
Python
import json
# Load all records
records = []
with open('sc_voting_with_drafts.jsonl', 'r', encoding='utf-8') as f:
for line in f:
records.append(json.loads(line))
print(f"Loaded {len(records)} records")
# Find records with draft text
with_drafts = [r for r in records if r['draft_pdf']['has_pdf']]
print(f"Records with drafts: {len(with_drafts)}")
# Analyze voting patterns
unanimous = [r for r in records
if r['vote_summary']['total_yes'] == r['vote_summary']['total_ms']]
print(f"Unanimous votes: {len(unanimous)}")
# Search draft text
keyword = "peacekeeping"
matching = [r for r in with_drafts
if r['draft_pdf']['text'] and keyword.lower() in r['draft_pdf']['text'].lower()]
print(f"Drafts mentioning '{keyword}': {len(matching)}")
Command Line (jq)
# Count records by year
cat sc_voting_with_drafts.jsonl | jq -r '.date[:4]' | sort | uniq -c
# Find all vetoed resolutions
cat sc_voting_with_drafts.jsonl | jq 'select(.vote_summary.total_no > 0)'
# Extract all China votes
cat sc_voting_with_drafts.jsonl | jq '.member_state_votes[] | select(.ms_code == "CHN")'
# Get records with draft text over 50KB
cat sc_voting_with_drafts.jsonl | jq 'select(.draft_pdf.char_count > 50000)'
Analysis Ideas
Voting Pattern Analysis
- P5 veto frequency and patterns
- Voting bloc identification
- Temporal trends in voting behavior
Text Analysis
- Topic modeling on draft texts
- Resolution complexity (by text length)
- Language patterns in successful vs. failed resolutions
Correlation Studies
- Resolution length vs. voting outcome
- Subject matter vs. unanimity
- Temporal trends in resolution topics
Data Quality Notes
PDF Text Extraction
- Success Rate: 100% (488/488 PDFs successfully extracted)
- Non-Readable PDFs: 2 identified in initial scan (not in this dataset)
- Extraction Method: PyPDF2 library
- Text Quality: Machine-readable, preserves line breaks and structure
Missing Data
- Draft PDFs: 82.5% of votes lack draft PDFs
- Primarily older records (pre-1990s)
- Some recent records also missing
- Empty Fields: Some records have empty
agenda,subjects, orvote_notefields
Known Limitations
- Older resolutions (1940s-1980s) have limited draft PDF availability
- Some extracted text may contain formatting artifacts
- Member state names use historical designations (e.g., "USSR", "ZAIRE")
- Permanent member status reflects historical composition
File Generation
