Capítol #5 - Protecció contra Pegasus

Veure

Cada any, els governs, les agències d'aplicació de la llei, els militars i les corporacions inverteixen milers de milions de dòlars en la creació i la compra de programari espia maliciós, programari dissenyat per infiltrar-se en silenci al dispositiu d'un usuari i permetre als atacants veure'n el contingut sense ser detectats.

Aquest any, el projecte Pegasus va revelar que els usuaris d'aquest tipus de programari espia, conegut com Pegasus i creat pel grup NSO, s'havien dirigit als telèfons que pertanyen a milers de persones en més de 50 països, inclosos executius d'empreses, polítics, periodistes i activistes dels drets humans.

En aquesta edició de PrivChat, uniu-vos a Likhita i Etienne Maynier d'Amnistia Internacional i John Scott-Railton de Citizen Lab per parlar:

  • Què poden fer les persones, els periodistes, els activistes i els defensors dels drets humans per protegir-se del programari espia sofisticat?
  • A quin tipus d'organitzacions podem donar suport per ajudar a aturar aquest abús?
  • Qui està treballant en un programari més segur i privat en el qual podem confiar?

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