Security experts were skeptical of the few clues released by the FBI, which said with confidence that North Korea was responsible for Sony's assault.
Leakages for NSA spy-based actions on North Korean networks seem to confirm the FBI's claim. But the questions that are being born are many.

Unless Sony's hack is considered a side-by-side loss from the NSA, she preferred not to disclose her actions to protect the company.
Whatever the stuff, Sony has not yet made any statements about the leaked document.
