On November 24th, 2014 Sony Pictures Entertainment, was the victim of a cyber-attack, and on January 2nd, 2015, the Treasury imposed sanctions against the Democratic People's Republic of Korea, more commonly known as North Korea.
The premise of the sanctions is the assertion by the FBI that the cyber-attack was committed by North Korea, an assertion that has been public refuted by computer security experts based on information available to them.
To avoid a repeat of the "WMDs in Iraq" debacle, the President could allow a well-respected, non-partisan, independent audit by a cyber-security firm, of the evidence linking North Korea to the cyber-attack as the FBI's "just trust us" stance is insufficient, especially in the face of North Korea's public statement denying their involvement.
