This week with colleagues we was able to generalize recently released information on almost limitless possibilities of American agencies NSA tracking owners of mobile devices. Another portion of the secret documents explains that since 2008, the NSA has developed software tools that allow access to the personal information of iPhone owners , as well as remotely control the device in order to obtain recordings from a microphone and camera images. Of course, the geolocation service spies could also take advantage of determining the location of an object, without his knowledge.
However, in the German press published information and found some inconsistencies. First, dated 2008 slide said that the current version at the spyware software required for the installation of physical contact with the device, ie, could not be installed remotely. However, such a possibility in the future was supposed to appear, and it is possible that it has been successfully implemented. Secondly, there is no reliable information about the ability of the NSA to carry out surveillance of the owners of devices running iOS 7 - the latest operating system of Apple.
Apple company , hurried to disseminate information about its innocence and ignorance about the actions of the NSA. According to the company, Apple is doing everything possible to protect sensitive information owners of its products against hacker attacks, whoever is behind them. Apple has never cooperated with NSA and any other government agencies in collecting information about citizens.
