Kapitel #5 – Schutz vor Pegasus

Wache

Jedes Jahr investieren Regierungen, Strafverfolgungsbehörden, Militärs und Unternehmen Milliarden von Dollar in die Entwicklung und den Kauf von bösartiger Spyware – Software, die entwickelt wurde, um unbemerkt in das Gerät eines Benutzers einzudringen und Angreifern die Möglichkeit zu geben, den Inhalt unbemerkt einzusehen.

In diesem Jahr deckte das Pegasus-Projekt auf, dass Benutzer dieser Art von Spionagesoftware, die unter dem Namen Pegasus bekannt ist und von der NSO-Gruppe entwickelt wurde, die Telefone von Tausenden von Menschen in mehr als 50 Ländern ins Visier genommen hatten, darunter Führungskräfte aus der Wirtschaft, Politiker, Journalisten und Menschenrechtsaktivisten.

In dieser Ausgabe von PrivChat diskutieren Likhita und Etienne Maynier von Amnesty International und John Scott-Railton von Citizen Lab:

  • Was Privatpersonen, Journalisten, Aktivisten und Menschenrechtsverteidiger tun können, um sich vor ausgeklügelter Spionagesoftware zu schützen?
  • Welche Organisationen können wir unterstützen, um diesem Missbrauch Einhalt zu gebieten?
  • Wer arbeitet an sicherer, privater Software, der wir vertrauen können?

Roger Dingledine, Co-Founder of the Tor Project, will join us as our host and moderator.
