WikiLeaks Reveals 'Athena' CIA Spying Program Targeting All Versions of Windows

WikiLeaks Reveals 'Athena' CIA Spying Program Targeting All Versions of Windows

  #WikiLeaks Reveals 'Athena,' Another #CIA Spying Program Targeting All Versions of Windows (XP to Win 10):

"...the spyware has been designed to take full control over the
infected Windows PCs remotely, allowing the agency to perform all sorts
of things on the target machine, including deleting data or uploading
malicious software, and stealing data and send them to CIA server.
...
The leaked documents suggest that Athena, written in Python programming language, was developed in August 2015, just a month after Microsoft released its Windows 10 operating system.


Interestingly, one document also suggests that the CIA agents have been
advised to make sure that the spyware should not get caught by
antivirus software programs, especially Kaspersky AV software."
