[Infowarrior] - Wikileaks: German Police Skype Trojan

[Richard Forno]

The pdf file obtained by Wikileaks and also released by the political party
Piraten, contains two scanned documents relating to activities of the
Bavarian police, Ministry of Justice and the Prosecution office in
intercepting encrypted data submitted via SSL or Skype via the internet. The
first one, presenting a communication on splitting cost between Bavarian
police and the prosecutors offices, the second one presenting the related
offer for the software by a German company called Digitask.

The technology, in high-level explained in the offer of Digitask, works via
a local installation of a malware on the clients computer.
