I'm not worried about NK and their missiles merely because launching an object into orbit does mean you can land an object anywhere on the planet. However, there's only a handful of countries that have successfully reentered objects.
There's going to be lots of time to deal with NK before anyone has to worry about a nuke being launched. The biggest worry for any country is if NK or similar rogue country produced a Davy Crockett size nuclear device. I mean a few Davy Crocketts and you could turn a Cessna into a city eradicating weapon.
IMO we don't need to be worried about 'rogue states' with nuclear weapons. I mean there was a big ideological difference between the USA and the USSR with a lot more nuclear weapons; there's possibly a bigger ideological difference between the USA and NK, but there's potentially a single nuke in the NK arsenal, IIRC the US doubted the NK test was actually a nuclear detonation and not simply a multi-tonne load of HE to fake it, so there might not even be a single nuke in NK.
