Israel has formed a senior senior team between senior ministers to grow charges sold by Pegasus Spyware sold by Israeli Cyber companies have been misused in India, France, Mexico, Morocco and Iraq, said an Israeli source on Wednesday.
However, the source considered it “doubtful” that the new sidewalk will be placed on spyware exports.
A short stop describing the team’s assignment as a formal investigation, the source said: “The aim is to find out what happened, to see this problem and learn the lesson.” The inter-minister team was led by the Israeli National Security Council, who answered PM Naftali Bennett and had a broader field of expertise than the Ministry of Defense, which oversees the exports of the NSO Group software.
“This event is outside the purview of the Ministry of Defense,” said the source, referring to the potential of diplomatic blowbacks.
Commenting on developments, NSO spokesman said: “We welcome every decision made by the Israeli government, and we believe that the company’s activities are flawless.” Bennett’s office rejected comments.
Overcoming the Cyber Conference on Wednesday, the Prime Minister did not mention NSO affairs.
Global investigations published on Sunday by 17 media organizations, led by a non-profit non-profit journalism group based in Paris, said Pegasus has been used in the efforts of smartphones that seek and success belongs to journalists, government officials and human rights activists.
NSO has rejected reporting by media partners, saying it was “full of the wrong assumptions and the theory that was not bound”.
Pegasus is intended only for use by government intelligence and law enforcement agencies to fight terrorism and crime, NSO said.
Such a goal also guided Israel’s export policy, Defense Minister Benny Gantz said in a speech on Tuesday.
However, in referring to allegations around Pegasus, he added: “We are studying the information published about this problem.” At the conference, Bennett said Israel had a memorandum of understanding with dozens of countries about cyber security, which he wanted to improve to be a “global cyber defense shield”.
