Global: “Intellexa Leaks” investigation provides further evidence of spyware threats to human rights
The “Intellexa Leaks”, a new joint investigation by Inside Story, Haaretz and WAV Research Collective with technical analysis provided by Amnesty International, exposes the internal operations of Intellexa, – a company notorious for selling highly invasive spyware Predator linked to human rights abuses in multiple countries.
Responding to the investigation published today, Jurre van Bergen, Technologist at Amnesty International’s Security Lab said:
“This investigation provides one of the clearest and most damning views yet into Intellexa’s internal operations and technology.
Jurre van Bergen, Technologist at Amnesty International’s Security Lab
“The fact that, at least in some cases, Intellexa appears to have retained the capability to remotely access Predator customer logs – allowing company staff to see details of surveillance operations and targeted individuals raises questions about its own human rights due diligence processes. If a mercenary spyware company is found to be directly involved in the operation of its product, then by human rights standards, it could potentially leave them open to claims of liability in cases of misuse and if any human rights abuses are caused by the use of spyware.
“Predator spyware was also implicated in surveillance attacks in 2021, such as against the Greek journalist Thanasis Koukakis, based on digital forensic research by Citizen Lab. Information in the leaked files now adds to the evidence connecting Intellexa’s products to violations of human rights, such as rights to privacy and freedom of expression.
“These revelations come at a time when new cases of Predator spyware abuse are coming to light, showing that Intellexa’s product continues to be used to unlawfully surveil activists, journalists and human rights defenders around the world. Amnesty International’s Security Lab uncovered an attack against a human rights lawyer from Pakistan’s Balochistan province over WhatsApp during the summer of 2025, proving that the Predator spyware is being actively used in Pakistan, gravely violating privacy and freedom of expression rights.
“Even more alarming is the company’s latest development of a new spyware product called Aladdin which can infect mobiles through online advertisements.”
Background
The “Intellexa Leaks” is a months-long investigation drawing on a set of highly sensitive documents and other materials leaked from the company, including internal company documents, sales and marketing material, as well as training videos. An in-depth analysis of the leaked materials, as well as details of the reply received by Haaretz from Intellexa’s founder, responding to a request for comment from the company, can be found in Amnesty International’s Security Lab technical briefing, “To Catch a Predator: Leak exposes the internal operations of Intellexa’s spyware”.
Amnesty International has previously documented Intellexa’s technical capabilities and numerous cases of abuse linked to their spyware products as part of “Predator Files” in 2023. Ongoing investigations into the attack campaign in Pakistan and other instances of abuse will be released in a series of upcoming Amnesty International reports.
