Jerusalem: An Israeli spyware firm thought to have hacked WhatsApp<\/a> in the past has told clients it can scoop user data from the world's top social media, the Financial Times reported Friday. The London paper wrote that NSO group<\/a> had \"told buyers its technology can surreptitiously scrape all of an individual's data from the servers of Apple, Google<\/a>, Facebook, Amazon and Microsoft, according to people familiar with its sales pitch\". 以色列间谍软件公司认为黑客WhatsApp过去已经告诉客户可以舀从世界顶级社交媒体用户数据,英国《金融时报》周五报道。 耶路撒冷,以色列间谍软件公司认为黑客攻击WhatsApp在过去已经告诉客户可以舀从世界顶级社交媒体用户数据,英国《金融时报》周五报道。伦敦的报纸写道,NSO集团“告诉买家其技术可以偷偷地刮所有个人数据服务器的苹果,谷歌、Facebook、亚马逊和微软,据知情人士透露,其推销”。
An NSO spokesperson, responding in a written statement to AFP's request for comment, denied the allegation.
\"There is a fundamental misunderstanding of NSO, its services and technology,\" it said.
\"NSO's products do not provide the type of collection capabilities and access to cloud applications, services, or infrastructure as listed and suggested in today's FT article.\"
In May, Facebook-owned WhatsApp said it had released an update to plug a security hole in its messaging app that allowed insertion of sophisticated spyware that could be used to spy on journalists, activists and others.
It said the attack bore \"all the hallmarks of a private company that works with a number of governments around the world\".
It did not name a suspect but Washington-based analyst Joseph Hall, chief technologist at the Center for Democracy and Technology, said at the time that the hack appeared related to the NSO's Pegasus software.
It is normally sold to law enforcement and intelligence services.
Friday's FT report, citing documents it had viewed and descriptions of a product demonstration, said the programme had \"evolved to capture the much greater trove of information stored beyond the phone in the cloud, such as a full history of a target's location data, archived messages or photos\".
NSO says it does not operate the Pegasus system, only licensing it to closely vetted government users \"for the sole purpose of preventing or investigating serious crime including terrorism\".
The group came under the spotlight in 2016 when researchers accused it of helping spy on an activist in the United Arab Emirates.
NSO is based in the Israeli seaside hi-tech hub of Herzliya, near Tel Aviv<\/a>. It says it employs 600 people in Israel and around the world.
Pegasus is a highly invasive tool that can reportedly switch on a target's cell phone camera and microphone, and access data on it, effectively turning the phone into a pocket spy.
\"Increasingly sophisticated terrorists and criminals are taking advantage of encrypted technologies to plan and conceal their crimes, leaving intelligence and law enforcement agencies in the dark and putting public safety and national security at risk,\" the company statement said.
\"NSO's lawful interception<\/a> products are designed to confront this challenge.\"<\/p><\/body>","next_sibling":[{"msid":70304505,"title":"Mukesh Ambani keeps salary capped at Rs 15 cr for 11th yr in a row","entity_type":"ARTICLE","link":"\/news\/mukesh-ambani-keeps-salary-capped-at-rs-15-cr-for-11th-yr-in-a-row\/70304505","category_name":null,"category_name_seo":"telecomnews"}],"related_content":[],"seoschemas":false,"msid":70319808,"entity_type":"ARTICLE","title":"Israel spyware firm can mine data from social media: FT","synopsis":"An Israeli spyware firm thought to have hacked WhatsApp in the past has told clients it can scoop user data from the world's top social media, the Financial Times reported Friday.","titleseo":"telecomnews\/israel-spyware-firm-can-mine-data-from-social-media-ft","status":"ACTIVE","authors":[],"Alttitle":{"minfo":""},"artag":"PTI","artdate":"2019-07-20 23:00:00","lastupd":"2019-07-21 21:29:26","breadcrumbTags":["WhatsApp","National Library of Australia","NSO Group","google","Lawful interception","MVAS\/Apps","Tel Aviv"],"secinfo":{"seolocation":"telecomnews\/israel-spyware-firm-can-mine-data-from-social-media-ft"}}" data-authors="[" "]" data-category-name="" data-category_id="" data-date="2019-07-20" data-index="article_1">
以色列间谍软件公司可以从社交媒体挖掘数据:英国《金融时报》
NSO发言人,在一份书面声明中回应法新社的记者的置评请求,否认了这一指控。
“有太阳的根本性的误解,它的服务和技术,”它说。

说,这次袭击孔”的所有特征一个私人公司,与许多世界各国政府”。

它通常是卖给执法和情报服务。
周五的英国《金融时报》的报告,引用文档查看和描述产品的演示,说这个项目已经“进化到捕获更大的信息在云中存储之外的电话,等一个完整的历史目标的位置数据,存档信息或照片”。
NSO说它不运作飞马座系统,仅许可它密切审查政府用户”为唯一目的的预防或调查严重犯罪,包括恐怖主义”。
该组织2016年在聚光灯下当研究人员指责它帮助监视一个激进分子在阿拉伯联合酋长国。
太阳位于以色列荷兹利亚海滨的高科技中心,近了特拉维夫。它说它雇佣了600人在以色列和世界各地。
飞马座据说是一个高度侵袭性的工具,可以打开一个目标的手机摄像头和麦克风,和访问数据,有效地把手机变成一个口袋间谍。
“日益复杂的恐怖分子和犯罪分子利用加密技术计划和掩饰他们的罪行,离开情报和执法机构在黑暗中,把公共安全和国家安全面临风险,”该公司声明说。
“太阳亮度的合法的拦截产品设计是应对这一挑战。”
