A recent report by Citizen Lab reveals that several governments, including Australia, Canada, Cyprus, Denmark, Israel, and Singapore, are likely customers of Israeli spyware firm Paragon Solutions. The report identifies these countries as potential users of Paragon's Graphite spyware. Following a scandal involving WhatsApp notifications to targeted users, Paragon's executives maintain that they only work with democratic states. Citizen Lab also disclosed that evidence suggests specific law enforcement agencies, such as Ontario Provincial Police, are using Paragon's technology. The report underscores the complexities of commercial spyware deployment and detection.
