Wikileaks reveals CIA iPhone penetration team: hacking the iPhone A new batch of 8,761 files was released on Tuesday by WikiLeaks that alleges that the U.S. Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) has a dedicated iOS exploit team —and lacks the ability to keep the attack vectors under lock and key. They either bought or developed in-house a large pile of iPhone hacking tools. They were collected by the CIA's Center for Cyber Intelligence (CCI), a group of over 5000 members, and have been used to directly target over 10,000 people. However, the tools have escaped the CIA and are now circulating among former U.S. government hackers and contractors in an unauthorized manner. It is one of those people who released the information to Wikileaks.
