To help defenders and civil society leverage this tool to further accountability efforts we have released a forensic methodology guide.
With colleagues at @rsf.org's Digital Security Lab we have built Intrusion Log support into the latest version of MVT and AndroidQF

Pech für die Angreifer: Auch der Leiter unseres Amnesty Security Labs, @donncha.is, erhielt eine der Signal-Attacken - er und sein Team konnten diese mit einer russischen Gruppe, die unter dem Kürzel »UNC5792« bekannt ist, in Verbindung bringen.👇

Spyware forensic work has so far relied on incidental logs that were never designed for security analysis and are too often partial and short-lived. Now we have the possibility to detect advanced spyware, exploits and unauthorised physical access, even months after the fact.
Credit to the teams at Google and Android who engaged deeply on this work over the past two years, taking onboard a lot of feedback on what civil society forensic work needs.
We hope this can be a starting point for more proactive efforts to support spyware accountability.
