Attackers have compromised the network of Italian intrusion software vendor Hacking Team and released a large cache of private documents. Among the documents released are invoices showing that the company has sold its intrusion software to oppressive regimes.

Researchers working with the Citizen Lab at the University of Toronto have published evidence.
