SPY 'INSIDE NO10' Boris Johnson’s computer network ‘HACKED with world’s most powerful cyberweapon that tracks messages in major breach’

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.

Scientists are unclear about what data hackers could have had access to – but they do suspect information was taken.

Senior researcher at the University of Toronto’s Citizen Lab centre John Scott-Railton said his “jaw dropped” when he uncovered the cyber attack.
