Between May and September 2023, former Egyptian MP Ahmed Eltantawy was targeted with Cytrox's Predator spyware via links sent on SMS and WhatsApp after Eltantawy publicly stated his plans to run for President in the 2024 Egyptian elections. As Egypt is a known customer of Cytrox's Predator spyware, and the spyware was delivered via network injection from a device located physically inside Egypt, we attribute the attack to the Egyptian government with high confidence.
Ars Technica also has a pretty detailed write-up of the attack. That was pretty crazy.
And it’s also a reminder that, if you are running for some high-profile political office or are working for someone who is running for that office, you should enable lockdown mode on your iPhone/iPad/Mac. Lockdown mode wouldn’t have stopped what happened to John Podesta in 2016, but it would’ve stopped this attack.
