FinSpy Spyware for Mac and Linux OS Targets Egyptian Organisations

Amnesty International exposed details of a new surveillance campaign that targeted Egyptian civil society organizations with previously undisclosed versions of FinSpy spyware designed to target Linux and macOS systems. The campaign is not linked to ‘NilePhish,’ a hacking group known for attacking Egyptian NGOs in a series of attacks, involving an older version of FinFisher, phishing technique, and malicious Flash Player downloads. Instead, the new versions were used by a new unknown hacking group, which they believe is state-sponsored and active since September 2019.
