New WikiLeaks Document Reveals CIA is Spying on You

Wikileaks Releases How CIA Is Spying on You.

• Code-named "Vault 7" and "Year Zero" by WikiLeaks
• CIA malware targets iPhone, Android, smart TVs
• CIA malware targets Windows, OSx, Linux, routers
• CIA 'hoarded' vulnerabilities ("zero days")

This is huge leak by Wikileaks.

Recently, the CIA lost control of the majority of its hacking arsenal including malware, viruses, trojans, weaponized "zero day" exploits, malware remote control systems and associated documentation. This extraordinary collection, which amounts to more than several hundred million lines of code, gives its possessor the entire hacking capacity of the CIA. The archive appears to have been circulated among former U.S. government hackers and contractors in an unauthorized manner, one of whom has provided WikiLeaks with portions of the archive.

"Vault 7" is a substantial collection of material about CIA activities obtained by WikiLeaks.

"Year Zero" introduces the scope and direction of the CIA's global covert hacking program, its malware arsenal and dozens of "zero day" weaponized exploits against a wide range of U.S. and European company products, include Apple's iPhone, Google's Android and Microsoft's Windows and even Samsung TVs, which are turned into covert microphones.

Edward Snowden replied to Wikileaks

PSA: This incorrectly implies CIA hacked these apps / encryption. But the docs show iOS/Android are what got hacked - a much bigger problem. https://t.co/Bw9AkBpOdt

Last huge leak has happened at the time of US President election. Emails stolen from Hilary Clinton campaign manager John Podesta.

Julian Assange has called for the leak of important political documents including Mr. Trump's unpublished Tax returns and files on the French election.

CIA malware and hacking tools are built by EDG (Engineering Development Group), a software development group within CCI (Center for Cyber Intelligence), a department belonging to the CIA's DDI (Directorate for Digital Innovation).

he CIA has developed automated multi-platform malware attack and control systems covering Windows, Mac OS X, Solaris, Linux and more, such as EDB's "HIVE" and the related "Cutthroat" and "Swindle" tools.

HIVE is a multi-platform CIA malware suite and its associated control software. The project provides customizable implants for Windows, Solaris, MikroTik (used in internet routers) and Linux platforms and a Listening Post (LP)/Command and Control (C2) infrastructure to communicate with these implants.
