- 1. Google Threat Analysis Group’s Spyware Research: How CSVs Target Devices and Applications
There is a Looming Shadow: Commercial Surveillance Vendors (CSVs) – that is not confusing at all and we will not mix that up with our well known CSVs… Or will we… I wonder why we bother hahah Anyway, The latest report by Google's Threat Analysis Group (TAG) unveils a disturbing reality – unveils, meaning only, - if you have been living under a rock and have forgot about many, including the Pegasus Project: - The book by the same name is a good read, I am close to finishing it. Have a look. TAG look further into the world of Commercial Surveillance Vendors who are operating under a veil of legitimacy. These vendors pose a significant threat to individuals, organizations, and society at large. O yes, they do. I do laugh at the legitimacy to be honest. To me, it always feels more a government domain, than the private field. But don’t get me started. Within their ecosystem, sophisticated spyware infiltrates devices, and I am told that individual privacy is under siege, and the very foundations of democracy are at risk. Which sounds pretty serious.
Unlike traditional cybercriminals, CSVs operate in a legal gray area.
