Chapitre 5 - Protection contre Pegasus

Regardez

Chaque année, les gouvernements, les forces de l'ordre, les armées et les entreprises investissent des milliards de dollars dans la création et l'achat de logiciels espions malveillants. Ces logiciels sont conçus pour s'infiltrer silencieusement dans le système d'un utilisateur et permettent aux attaquants d'en visualiser le contenu sans être détectés.

Cette année, le projet Pegasus a révélé que les utilisateurs de ce type de logiciel espion, connu sous le nom de Pegasus et construit par le groupe NSO, avaient ciblé les téléphones appartenant à des milliers de personnes dans plus de 50 pays, notamment des chefs d'entreprise, des hommes politiques, des journalistes et des militants des droits humains.

Dans cette édition du PrivChat, rejoignez Likhita et Etienne Maynier d'Amnesty International et John Scott-Railton de Citizen Lab pour discuter :

  • Que peuvent faire les particuliers, les journalistes, les militants et les défenseurs des droits fondamentaux pour se protéger contre les logiciels espions sophistiqués ?
  • Quel type d'organisations pouvons-nous soutenir pour aider à mettre fin à ces abus ?
  • Qui travaille sur des logiciels plus sûrs, plus intimes et auxquels nous pouvons faire confiance ?

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