BORIS Johnson’s computer network has been targeted by the world’s most-powerful cyber weapon in a shock security breach, researchers have claimed.
Military-grade spyware Pegasus can film users through their device’s camera, record conversations, listen to calls and can send messages.
Cyber boffins have claimed the software was discovered on a device using Number 10‘s network on July 7, 2020.
They said a similar breach also happened at the Foreign Office.
Hackers were linked to the UAE, India, Cyprus, and Jordan, a New Yorker investigation claimed.
Several Downing Street devices were tested – including Mr Johnson’s – but officials could not establish which device was infected, it added.
