MEMORY LANE | Dozens of #Journalists’ #iPhones #Hacked with #NSO ‘#ZERO_CLICK’ #spyware, says #Citizen_Lab
The spyware was #silently_delivered, likely over #iMessage.
NSO #sells governments and nation states #access to its #Pegasus_spyware as a #prepackaged service by providing the #infrastructure and the #exploits needed to launch the spyware against the customer’s #targets.
But the spyware maker has repeatedly #distanced itself from what its customers do and has said it does not know who its customers target. Some of NSO’s known customers include #authoritarian_regimes.
#Saudi_Arabia allegedly used the #surveillance technology to spy on the #communications of columnist #Jamal_Khashoggi shortly before his murder, which U.S. intelligence concluded was likely ordered by the kingdom’s de facto ruler, Crown Prince #Mohammed_bin_Salman.
Citizen Lab said it also found #evidence that #Dridi, a journalist at Arabic television station #Al_Araby in #London, had fallen #victim to a zero-click #attack. The researchers said Dridi was likely targeted by the #UAE_government.
In a phone call, Dridi told TechCrunch that her phone may have been targeted because of her close association to a person of interest to the UAE.
Dridi’s phone, an iPhone XS Max, was targeted for a longer period, likely between October 2019 and July 2020. The researchers found evidence that she was targeted on two separate occasions with a zero-day attack.

@SwiftOnSecurity ROFLMAO!
The cold hard truth is that #FLOSS is inherently more secure than #CCSS and by it's very nature, #vulnerabilities are easier found and fixed - usually way before any #malware in the wild exists that #exploits it.

@SebastienK if you have to deal with State-Sponsored attackers that can leverage #TEMPEST-based #Exploits than you shouldn't use said devices to begin with but instead use a more rugged system.
There also have #ToolfreeSwappableBatteries for good reasons: #Safety!
Cuz batteries, age, leak, explode or get destroyed all the time...
