অর্ঘ্য 🏏📚 💻Dutch intelligence services are warning of new Russian government-backed hacking campaigns against Signal and WhatsApp users, including government and military officials, and journalists worldwide.
The phishing and social engineering techniques used are not new, but the fact that the Dutch are warning against them means they work.
Official response from @signalapp 👇
Signal (@[email protected])
We are aware of recent reports regarding targeted phishing attacks that have resulted in account takeovers of some Signal users, including government officials and journalists. We take this very seriously. To be clear: Signal’s encryption and infrastructure have not been compromised and remain robust. These attacks were executed via sophisticated phishing campaigns, designed to trick users into sharing information – SMS codes and/or Signal PIN – to gain access to users’ accounts.
Still the larger question remains 👇
Nearly a year after a national-security scandal erupted on my iPhone, no one in the Trump administration has faced consequences. #SignalGate
