The FBI is checking the creators of Pegasus. Israeli company broke the law in the US?

The NSO Group was targeted by the FBI. Agents check what role the company played in hacking the equipment of American citizens and companies.
According to Reuters , the FBI began to be interested in an Israeli company as early as 2017. At that time, the agents of the office wanted to find out whether NSO is using the acquired from American hackers. Although the company reserves that its products cannot be used to track American smartphones, some cyber security specialists express their doubt on this issue. Others say that they not only can, but that they are already tracking.

NSO Group is a company that has been in the spotlight not only in Poland.

The company is known in Poland primarily as the creator of the loud Pegasus , which allows you to break into the victim's phone and spy on it in a way extremely difficult to detect, but in the world for a long time raises a lot of controversy. Although the NSO officially claims to make its spy software available only to governments and only to fight terrorists and perpetrators of serious crime, it is possible that these proudly proclaimed values ​​are only a theory. Journalists warn that the NSO Group also sells its products to governments that are far from flawless, and they use them to track activists, opposition members or employees of hostile media.

You can't hack Americans .

According to information provided by Reuters, the FBI is now trying to determine if any representative of the United States government or an allied state has been hacked using tools offered by NSO. And if that happened, who is behind these attacks? In November last year, the FBI kindly reminded that hacking into the phones or computers of American citizens is a crime, whether it is done by a single hacker or a hacker group, or a company working for a government.

A government agency became more interested in the company from Izreal after Facebook filed a lawsuit against her regarding its exploitation of the security hole in WhatsApp and hacking its help to about 14 users. The agents' curiosity was certainly not dampened by the revelations of the hook company on Jeff Bezos, behind which the Saudi Crown Prince was to stand . She stated that one of NSO's products could be used to break into the iPhone CEO of Amazon. And you can accuse Bezos a lot, but not that he is a terrorist.

The NSO claims that it knows nothing about the interest of the FBI and that American law representatives have not contacted the company. He also denies that the company's product was used in the hook on Bezos.
