Conference Pegasus Project

CyberSchool and University of Rennes 1 (ISTIC) were pleased to invite you to a conference on Wednesday November 24th at 6.30 p.m about the Pegasus project, with Etienne Maynier, technologist in the Amnesty Tech program of Amnesty International.

In this talk, we spoke about the broader context in which these attacks happened, before seeing the specificity of this investigation and the smartphone forensic methodology developed (with a technical demonstration of the analysis of an iPhone). Time at the end was dedicated to a discussion with the audience.
