Mobile Hacking Company “Cellebrite” Hacked and 900 GB Of Logins, Log Files Relesed by Hackers


In the latest case of a hacking company being hacked, details by the crew that claims to have spirited away login info and other data from the cell phone-cracking company.
According to a report from the Motherboard, an unnamed hacker has breached Cellebrite’s systems and managed to steal 900 Gb of data. The data includes the customer usernames and passwords, the data collected by the company from various mobile devices, and other technical information of the company.


All the stolen files and data is reportedly traded in some IRC chat rooms, but the hacker claims that he did not leak the data to the public. The motivation of the hacker is still not clear, but he seems to have dome this against the changes in surveillance legislation and the “recent stance taken by Western governments.”
