NSO sells its spyware to government and law enforcement agencies, who use it to covertly break into mobile phones and remotely eavesdrop on calls and record messages.
The hack is the first documented case of Pegasus being used to target a Russian journalist, according to Access Now. But it isn’t clear who was responsible.
A spokesperson for NSO Group said in a statement that it “only sells its technologies to allies of the US and Israel and always investigates credible allegations of misuse, taking prompt action if warranted.” Ivan Kolpakov, Meduza’s editor-in-chief, said in an interview on Wednesday that whoever was responsible for carrying out the hack, his organisation had been left disturbed by the incident.
