Destroy your cellphone if infected by Pegasus

Spyware Pegasus NSO Group based in Israel is a powerful tool.
Very few are known publicly about Pegasus.
The company won’t even share which countries actively use their tools.
What was revealed was having “60 customers” in 40 countries.
As for money, the cost of a Pegasus license can be as high as Rs 70 Lakh.
With one license around 50 smartphones can be tracked.
Rs 70 lakh RS per license is just an educated guess.
The final price depends on the contract stored under the wrap for the privacy of the government and government institutions.
As expected in the past 2016, to spy on only 10 people using Pegasus, the NSO Group charged a minimum fee around Rs 9 Crore.
According to the price list 2016, the NSO Group imposes customers $ 650,000 (Rs 4.84 Crore at the current exchange rate) to hack 10 devices, in addition to the installation fee of $ 500,000 (Rs 3.75 Crore).
These numbers may seem high enough for every individual but any government, this is a nut because it gets an Intel vital about their target.
Now, no government will only sign a contract to just peek at 10 people.
It’s like more money you pumped to Pegasus, the more people you can get rid of.
And note that the NSO Group technology is not operated by the company after the agreement is made.
The company in the latest transparency report is clarified, “NSO Pegasus licenses to sovereign countries and state institutions, does not operate Pegasus, have no visibility to their use, and do not collect information about customers.” Pegasus needs sophisticated IT infrastructure.
Employees NSO Group visits their “customer” site to install all facilities.
In accordance with the pegasus product brochure, “NSO is responsible for deploying and configuring Pegasus hardware and software at the customer’s place.” All settings require a web server, communication module, cellular communication module, permit module, data storage, server security, hardware system installation, operator console and finally the Pegasus application.

It gives the best stealth and is almost impossible to get rid of Pegasus from an infected phone.
If you are sure that you are being tracked or you think that you have the potential to disappoint every person with a power that can justify the use of spending money like this then your best bet is to ‘destroy’ your cellphone and get a new number.
There is no software that is proven to block Pegasus so as not to communicate after being in a smartphone.
Also, if you only change your telephone number and insert a new SIM on an infected phone, Pegasus will still continue to work.
The factory reset the phone will help a little too.
Destroying your cellphone is the only way.
As, if the phone has a battery, Pegasus can activate the camera and microphone to capture your movements, track locations, read SMS, and others.

To outsmart Pegasus, you can try to divide contacts and chats among several phone numbers and handsets that are different in such a way that contacts and handsets are always isolated.
But it’s just a basic approach to dealing with this stubborn spyware.
Or, you can wait for the Pegasus operator to leave your cellphone.
Once the spy mission ends, the Pegasus operator can hit the murder switch remotely to remove the agent of Pegasus himself on the telephone of the victim.

Stealth is the largest USP Pegasus and the victim will not be able to see the difference after the phone is infected.
