Here are some of the NSA snooping tools leaked by Shadow Broke
In what could be the hack of this decade, a hacking group called Shadow Brokers claims to have hacked NSA and has access to some of the most scariest hacking and snooping tools.
Shadow Brokers are willing to sell this tools to the highest bidder according to various news reports. As of now, Shadow Brokers say they dumped 60 percent of all the stolen files, and started an auction, promising to give the winner access to the other 40 percent.
The veracity and authenticity of the NSA hacking tools has been confirmed by multiple sources. Security researchers from Kaspersky have confirmed the leaked data is similar to what they have seen from past Equation Group malware. Another investigative website, The Intercept, with the help of Snowden documents, has tied the leaked malware with actual NSA cyber-weapons.
At the time of writing this articles, most of the URLs where Shadow Brokers dumped details about their operation (GitHub, Tumblr, PasteBin) have been taken down.
