"x_misp_value":"The recent White House leaks allegedly began shortly after President Trump\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s inauguration. According to Wired, \u00e2\u20ac\u0153\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6 multiple reports indicate that Republican operatives and White House staffers are using end-to-end encrypted messaging app Confide [sic].\u00e2\u20ac\u009d Confide\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s website touts the product as \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Your Confidential Messenger. With encrypted messages that self-destruct, Confide gives you the comfort of knowing that your private messages will now truly stay that way.\u00e2\u20ac\u009d\r\n\r\nIOActive researchers subsequently pointed out vulnerabilities in the Confide app on Windows, macOS, and Android. Given the increasing popularity of encrypted messaging apps, Insikt Group was curious about other encrypted messaging apps that might be vulnerable to attack.\r\n\r\nThe curiosity led to exploration in ReversingLab\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s (Recorded Future\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s research partner) malicious file data, specifically Android files. An Android Spyware file surfaced in late 2016, labeled by ESET as Android/Spy.Kasandra.A trojan (variant), and G Data labeled it Android.Trojan-Spy.SandroRAT.A, more commonly known as DroidJack."
