The cell phones of dozens journalists and activists in El Salvador have been hacked with the Israeli firm NSO Group’s Pegasus spyware over the past year and a half, a cyber-security watchdog says
Citizen Lab has uncovered the use of NSO Group’s Pegasus spyware to target journalists and human rights defenders in multiple countries.
While the researchers could not conclusively link the hacks to El Salvador’s government, the report said “the strong country-specific focus of the infections suggests that this is very likely.” NSO, which was blacklisted by the US government last year, says it sells its spyware only to legitimate government law enforcement and intelligence agencies vetted by Israel’s Defense Ministry for use against terrorists and criminals.'Aggressiveness was jaw-dropping'
