제프 베조스가 고용한 보안 연구원들이 베조스의 스마트폰 해킹 배후에는 사우디아라비아가 있는 거 같다고 언급.

실제로 사우디는 (베조스가 소유하고 있는) 워싱턴 포스트의 기자를 살해했다는 의심을 받고 있고, 포스트는 실제로 엄청난 비판을 쏟아내고 있음.https://t.co/OePCkdmK8M
If this proves to be true, it’ll be another example of Saudis crossing the line and this time against an American citizen. Interesting to see what DOJ and POTUS do about it... Any bets?

The #BezosReport is complete, and its investigators have concluded that the Saudis were the original source of the Bezos - Sanchez text messages, NOT the brother, as AMI seemed to insist.

Wow.
The brother angle always seemed way too convenient, especially for AMI after that disgusting magazine fluffing MBS.https://t.co/a1ocDE9WJt

Amazon’s security team is highly competent, and I expect Bezos is paranoid enough to not fall for the normal traps. Wouldn’t be crazy for a CEO to have a secret personal phone that isn’t managed/secured.

Even professional mobile malware leaves traces, I would wait for real evidence before making any claims.

That being said, the idea of Bezos going after NSO Group in court gives me a reason to get up in the morning.
Jeff Bezos’ private investigator says they’ve determined with high confidence that Saudi Arabia got access to Bezos’ phone. He cites my @AP story with @JeffHorwitz that used forensic evidence to show Saudi got advance copy of AMI’s pro-MBS magazine https://t.co/rDQm79lYNL

Jeff Bezos told his longtime security specialist to “spend whatever is needed” to find out who was involved in the National Enquirer's alleged sextortion attempt on his boss. The investigation is now complete, says Gavin De Becker, and Saudi Arabia's fingerprints are everywhere. https://t.co/VA5x6JJQqD

So what happens if and when the FBI confirms this and DOJ wants to indict a bunch of Saudi officials? Lot of difficult conversations inside the administration. https://t.co/pXni4C5xMO

Golly! Why on earth would the Saudis want to hack Bezos? I mean, it's not like they're colluding with a dude who hates Bezos and happens to be POTUS, right? https://t.co/l7rakCEXvi

There isn’t enough in the story to go on, and several of the quotes are clearly from non-experts and can’t be parsed.
— Alex Stamos (@alexstamos) March 31, 2019
For normal people, I would say 0-day is a paranoid fantasy and assume credential reuse or phishing. For MBS vs World’s Richest Man, anything is on the table. https://t.co/UWRTmqzYJg
I got some grief from people for this column after AMI so aggressively leaked "the brother did it" angle on the Jeff Bezos hacking. But now my piece about the Saudis going after the owner of the Washington Post looks better than ever https://t.co/qWJCgfEChZ

Earlier today, Michael Sanchez — brother of Bezos' GF — told Page Six that the Enquirer *approached him* about Bezos' racy texts, not the other way around. If true, that means the Enquirer found out about the affair from another source or method. https://t.co/uwQZC3pMXY

On Bezos's phone: the current speculation is that for such an attack to work, they probably involve a 0-day exploit+malware assuming iOS (by NSO or someone similar).

Curious to hear from the security folks here - what are other ways this could have happened?
