Cellebrite asks cops to keep its phone hacking tech ‘hush hush’ | TechCrunch::For years, cops and other government authorities all over the world have been using phone hacking technology provided by Cellebrite to unlock phones and In a leaked video, a Cellebrite employee urges law enforcement customers to keep their use of its phone hacking technology secret.
Cellebrite is (hopefully) used under the law. They either get warrant or use a perpetual warrant on urgent security stuff. At least in countries with proper laws and abiding police.
Hackers sure indeed can use the insecurities cellebrite is using. But cellebrite has massive amount of budget for finding insecurities which normal hackers / people lack.
