Symantec har spårat ett fyrtiotal attacker som har gjorts med samma mjukvara och verktyg som har använts av CIA.
Det är samma mjukvaror och samma metoder som nu publicerats av Wikileaks vilket tyder på att attackerna genomförts av CIA. Symantec är däremot noga med att inte direkt peka ut CIA.
That means the attacks were likely conducted by the U.S. Central Intelligence Agency. The files posted by WikiLeaks appear to show internal CIA discussions of various tools for hacking into phones, computers and other electronic gear, along with programming code for some of them, and multiple people familiar with the matter have told Reuters that the documents came from the CIA or its contractors.
Symantec said it had connected at least 40 attacks in 16 countries to the tools obtained by WikiLeaks, though it followed company policy by not formally blaming the CIA.
