Finland’s Ministry for Foreign Affairs says devices of Finnish diplomats have been hacked and infected with Pegasus spyware in a cyber-espionage campaign. Attacks targeted officials from Finnish missions abroad, as discovered following an investigation that started in the autumn of 2021. US Department of State employees’ phones also found that their iPhones had been hacked with an iOS exploit dubbed ForcedEntry to install spyware developed by Israeli surveillance firm NSO Group. US sanctioned NSO for developing spyware and selling hacking tools used by state-backed threat actors.”]
