5/ The #spyware allowed the #FSB to monitor Parubets' communications & movements.
And as @cooperq.com & our team dug in, it was clear that suspicions harbored by Parubets & the First Dept. were right: it looked a lot like #Monokle family spyware, first reported on by #Lookout security in 2019.

The spyware bears many similarities to the Monokle family of spyware, previously reported on by Lookout Mobile Security, which they attribute to the “Special Technology Center,” a contractor to the Russian government.

When I talk about #spyware, I am often asked - but what about #Russia?
#Monokle is an example of spyware made by Russian defense contractor, sanctioned by the U.S. Treasury Dept - Special Technology Center.
This spyware is not 0-click, but is still quite invasive & dangerous.
