NSO spyware was reportedly used to target iPhones of US State Department employees
 

On Friday, Reuters shed new light on the Biden administration’s recent decision to sanction Pegasus spyware developer NSO Group. Citing four people “familiar with the matter,” the outlet reports an unknown assailant used the firm’s software to infect iPhones belonging to at least nine US State Department officials.

The attacks reportedly targeted federal employees who were either stationed in Uganda or whose work involved the East African country. Reuters wasn’t able to identify who was behind the hacks. The State Department also declined to comment on the report. NSO says it will investigate the matter.
