Researchers warn of previously undetected surveillance spyware, named NoviSpy, that was found infecting a Serbian journalist’s phone.
Amnesty International discovered that Serbian authorities used the Cellebrite tool to unlock and extract data from the journalist's device without consent.
They also found the presence of NoviSpy spyware, which can extract personal data and activate the device's microphone and camera.
The spyware deployment utilized the Cellebrite unlocking process and is linked to the Serbian intelligence agency and government.
