Apple #iPhones of at least nine U.S. Department of State employees were #hacked by an unknown assailant using sophisticated spyware developed by the Israel-based #NSOGroup… The intrusions, first reported here, represent the widest known hacks of U.S. officials through NSO technology.

NSO Group said: If our investigation shall show these actions indeed happened with NSO’s tools, such customer will be terminated permanently and legal actions will take place…

#ControlDoctrine

NSO software is capable of not only #capturing #encrypted #messages, #photos and other #sensitive #information from #infected #phones, but also turning them into #recording #devices to monitor surroundings, based on product manuals reviewed by #Reuters.

Since at least February, this [ #iPhone ] #software #flaw allowed some NSO customers to take #control of #iPhones simply by #sending #invisible yet #tainted #iMessage requests to the #device, researchers who investigated the #espionage #campaign said.

The victims would not see or need to interact with a prompt for the hack to be successful. Versions of #NSO #surveillance #software, commonly known as #Pegasus, could then be installed.

Apple’s announcement that it would #notify #victims came on the same day it #sued #NSOGroup last week, accusing it of helping numerous customers break into #Apple’s #mobile #software, #iOS.

Silicon Valley's 'Next Big Thing': "Do Something Epic: Save the World™": "Venture capitalist Roger McNamee recently implored Silicon Valley to embrace human-driven social networks that empower rather than exploit users as the Next Big Thing. Having pioneered such networks, we were invited to guide Silicon Valley three decades or so ago on building Digital enterprises for the Wild Wild Web*. Today, we are ready to again lead Silicon Valley to further advance human-driven technologies in collaboration with the AFRL..." - Dr. Yogesh Malhotra, Founder, AWS-Quantum Valley™: BRINT.com Know-Build-Monetize™ Networks: YM-ABC™: YogeshMalhotra.com: AIMLExchange.com : BRINT.com : C4I-Cyber.com
