Pegasus: Israel to review the alleged process of abuse and license

Jerusalem: In the middle of Pegasus Snooping Case Backlash, Israel has established a committee to review the allegations of the abuse of the NSO Group supervision software and signal the possibility of “overall review of license”.
Alleged use of pegasus software to spy on journalists, defenders of human rights, politicians, and others in several countries including India sparked concerns about issues related to privacy.
Politicians, human rights activists, and journalists are targeted by telephone spyware sold to various governments by Israeli companies, according to the International Media Consortium.
“The defense formation refers to a review committee consisting of a number of bodies,” MPs of Ben-Barak Ram Parliament, Head of the Foreign Committee and Defense Knesset, told Military Radio on Thursday.
“When they complete their reviews, we will demand to see results and assess whether we need to make a correction,” Ben-barracks, who were formerly the deputy head of the Mossad Israeli spy agency, added.
Israel’s priority is “to review this whole thing to give a license”, he emphasizes.
The head of the NSO executive, Shalev Hulio, welcomed moving, told the army radio that he would be “very happy if there was an investigation so we could clear our name”.
Hulio claims that there is an effort “to smear the entire Israeli cyber industry”.
Ben-barracks noted that Pegasus has helped “expose many terror cells”, but “if it is misused or sold to an irresponsible body, this is something we need to do”.
The Head of NSO also told the military radio that his company could not disclose the details of his contract because of “confidentiality issues,” but said, “he will offer full transparency to any government looking for more details”.
“Let the state entity happen – any official from any country – and I will be ready to open everything to them, for them to enter, to dig from top to bottom,” Hulio said.
NSO in a written response to PTI in October 2019, when the problem first came to the center of attention with abuse reports in India, said that it was considering “another use of our products rather than to prevent serious crimes and terrorism abuse, which is prohibited by contracting”.
“We take action if we detect abuse.
This technology is rooted in human rights protection – including the right to life, security, and body integrity – and which is why we are looking for alignment with the UN guidance principles on business and human rights., For Ensuring our products respecting all the fundamental human rights “, he said, which is his executive holder still maintaining.
Without confirming, or denying, if the software is sold to India, the Company says that “the product is licensed for government intelligence and law enforcement agencies for the only purpose of preventing and investigating serious terror and crime”.
“To protect the ongoing public safety mission from Customer agencies and provide significant legal and contractual constraints, the NSO Group cannot reveal who or cannot reveal who or not a client or discuss the specific use of the technology, “said the written statement.
The Israeli Ministry of Defense in a previous statement on Monday threatened that if it was found that the NSO group violated the provisions of the export license, it would “take appropriate action”.
The ministry said that Israel only allowed the company to export Cybersecurity products to “government leaders only for legal purposes and to prevent and investigate crime and to fight terrorism.
And this depends on the commitment regarding the final use / user of the country of purchases, which must comply with conditions.
This “.
