Among its key findings is the revelation of a previously unknown unique spyware for Android, dubbed NoviSpy, which has been deployed by Serbian police and the nation\u2019s Security Intelligence Agency, known as BIA.<\/p>\n<p>Serbian use of phone-cracking tech provider Cellebrite \u2014 freshly <a href=\"https:\/\/fedscoop.com\/israeli-firm-behind-tech-that-reportedly-cracked-trump-shooters-phone-wants-more-fed-business\/\">in the news<\/a> after the FBI reportedly used it this summer to access the phone of an alleged would-be assassin of President-Elect Donald Trump \u2014 in conjunction with NoviSpy appears to be a reaction to the growing difficulty of using industry-leading technologies like NSO Group\u2019s Pegasus spyware, said Donncha \u00d3 Cearbhaill, head of the security lab at Amnesty Tech.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s pushing others to try and use tactics for physical access,\u201d he told CyberScoop. \u201cAnd this will grow and grow in the coming years, as it gets more difficult to attack devices remotely.<\/p>\n<div class=\"ad ad--inline_1 \">\n<div class=\"ad__inner\"> <span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Advertisement<\/span> <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s quite shocking to see \u2026 Cellebrite\u2019s use as a key tool to unlock or break into the phones, and then from that enable authorities to install spyware that they would have been unable to install without the cell phone or without having the passcode,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s the second report this month by spyware-tracking researchers where physical access to a device enabled spyware infections, <a href=\"https:\/\/cyberscoop.com\/russian-surveillance-spyware-threat-citizen-lab\/\">following disclosures<\/a> that the Russian government detained a man and implanted spyware on his phone before releasing him.<\/p>\n<p>One of the Amnesty cases that featured the Cellebrite-NoviSpy combination was one targeting independent investigative journalist Slavi\u0161a Milanov, whose work includes exposing the misuse of public funds to purchase luxury cars in Serbia\u2019s poorest cities, and connections between local politicians and local construction companies financed by public money.<\/p>\n<p>Police stopped Milanov in February as he traveled from Dimitrovgrad to Perot with a colleague, with an officer telling him he had to \u201cgo with them for testing for psychoactive substances,\u201d he said in written comments to CyberScoop. Hours of detainment and questioning later, he went free and the police returned belongings to him \u2014 including his mobile phone.<\/p>\n<p>He got suspicious about what they\u2019d done with the phone after noticing his mobile data and wifi were turned off, and that a number of apps remained active when his phone was in police possession. Amnesty analyzed his phone and found traces of the Cellebrite-NoviSpy cocktail.<\/p>\n<div class=\"ad ad--inline_1 \">\n<div class=\"ad__inner\"> <span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Advertisement<\/span> <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>\u201cIt was a very unpleasant feeling,\u201d Milanov said. \u201cI was simultaneously confused, surprised, disappointed, and very angry.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The cases Amnesty found raise questions about whether police could use artificial intelligence to map someone\u2019s connections through phone data, \u00d3 Cearbhaill said. Milanov said he thought that was precisely what authorities hoped to learn.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFrom my point of view, the intention of the police was to obtain information about our work and data about our associates and citizens serving as sources of information,\u201d Milanov said. \u201cAt the same time, I believe they wanted to exert pressure on me and our journalist team, which is the only independent media outlet in the geographic areas between [Serbian city] Ni\u0161 and the Bulgarian Border. The incident was a demonstration of the power of an autocratic government.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>NoviSpy isn\u2019t as powerful as Pegasus, Amnesty said, but it can capture personal data from a target phone and do things like activate a phone\u2019s microphone or camera remotely. Amnesty \u201cattributes the NoviSpy spyware to BIA with high confidence,\u201d said \u00d3 Cearbhaill. Pegasus and its ilk have gotten more expensive to use, he said, and more difficult as tech companies like Google and Apple mount defenses against infiltration.<\/p>\n<p>The BIA issued a statement Monday calling the report \u201ctrivial sensationalism.\u201d <\/p>\n<div class=\"ad ad--inline_1 \">\n<div class=\"ad__inner\"> <span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Advertisement<\/span> <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>\u201cThe Security and Information Agency operates exclusively in accordance with the laws of the Republic of Serbia, and therefore we are not even able to comment on the meaningless statements in their text, just as we do not otherwise comment on similar content,\u201d the statement read. <\/p>\n<p>How the BIA obtained the use of Cellebrite tech is another topic of the report. Amnesty found the Norwegian Ministry of Foreign Affairs donated it to Serbia, and further stated in its report that the agency \u201cfailed to conduct an adequate due diligence process to assess and mitigate for the potential risks of this technology to human rights and to provide safeguards against its abuse.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The ministry told Amnesty that it finds it \u201calarming that digital forensic tools, purchased through a project funded by Norway, may have been used to target members of civil society in Serbia.\u201d It said the United Nations Office for Project Services, which was responsible for the project\u2019s activities, is expected to conduct an investigation into the alleged misuse.<\/p>\n<p>Amnesty said that Cellebrite did not answer some of its questions about the findings of the report, but in part responded that \u201cCellebrite has strict controls ensuring that our technology is used appropriately in legally sanctioned investigations.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The company issued a statement on Monday, claiming that it would be investigating the matter. <\/p>\n<div class=\"ad ad--inline_1 \">\n<div class=\"ad__inner\"> <span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Advertisement<\/span> <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>\u201cEthical, judicial and lawful use of our technology is paramount to our mission of accelerating justice and saving lives around the globe.
