German police Skype-hacking leaked
German police have hired a company to create Trojans capable of capturing traffic from Skype and SSL, leaked documents appear to show.
The two scanned documents , which appear on the Wikileaks website in their German form, are difficult to verify, but one appears to describe how a security company, Digitask, was asked to create a “Skype Capture Unit” based around Trojans planted on targeted PCs covertly transferring data to a remote server.
“As requested by you, we hereby submit an offer for a surveillance method of the encrypted VoIP protocol Skype,” says the company hired to carry out the hacking.
