๐Waterloo-based tech firm Sandvine has been blacklisted by the U.S. Department of Commerce over allegations of providing technology used for surveillance and censorship. Although previously owned by Francisco Partners, Sandvine is now under scrutiny for enabling autocratic governments, including Egypt, to inject spyware and manipulate web traffic. Their deep packet inspection (DPI) technology, typically used to block harmful content, has reportedly been misused for malicious purposes, according to a report from The Citizen Lab. Sandvineโs equipment was implicated in injecting spyware into an Egyptian politician's phone, leading to tighter controls on its operations.โ . ๐๐ง๐ฅ๐จ๐๐ค ๐ฒ๐จ๐ฎ๐ซ ๐๐ซ๐๐๐ฆ ๐ก๐จ๐ฆ๐ ๐ฐ๐ข๐ญ๐ก ๐๐๐ง๐จ๐ฃ ๐๐๐ซ๐๐ญ๐ก๐, ๐๐ง ๐๐ฐ๐๐ซ๐-๐ฐ๐ข๐ง๐ง๐ข๐ง๐ ๐๐๐๐ฅ๐ญ๐จ๐ซ ๐ข๐ง ๐๐ง๐ญ๐๐ซ๐ข๐จ. ๐๐๐ฅ๐ฅ: +๐ (๐๐๐) ๐๐๐-๐๐๐๐ ๐๐ฆ๐๐ข๐ฅ: ๐ฆ๐๐ง๐จ๐ฃ@๐ญ๐ก๐๐๐๐ง๐๐๐ข๐๐ง๐ก๐จ๐ฆ๐.๐๐จ๐ฆ @manojkaratha_realtor . . #TechSurveillance #SpywareScandal #Cybersecurity #DeepPacketInspection #SandvineControversy #DigitalCensorship #USBlacklist #mnm #malayalisnearmeapp #canadaupdate #canadanews
