In this video, WikiLeaks’ Julian Assange explains how the Central Intelligence Agency lost control of an arsenal of cyber-weapons. According to Mr. Assange, cyber weapons are weaponized Viruses, Trojans and Malware designed to penetrate Smart Phones, Smart TV’s and Computer Systems for the purpose of controlling, disabling and inserting data to or extracting data from those devises. Although reports indicate intelligence officials were aware these “Tools” had been compromised and shared, were it not for independent advocates for transparency, the world would still be in the dark. Thanks to WikiLeaks dumping nearly 9,000 documents revealing the depth and scope of the CIA’s surveillance techniques, everybody in the world should be wondering if any anti-virus or anti-spyware protection can protect their data and keep their devices under their control. Imagine your internet connected car deciding to veer into oncoming traffic while you’re taking the kids to school. How the hell can you guard yourself against sh!t like that? While we don’t have an answer, the face of WikiLeaks did promise to help. According to Mr. Assange, WikiLeaks will release more detailed information on specific exploits to tech firms whose products were targeted by the CIA’s tools. It was Apple, Google, Microsoft and Samsung, whose TVs were targeted by CIA hackers. Collectively, these companies are actively investigating the Wikileaks Vault 7 files, but have yet to warn of any previously unknown vulnerabilities that now need patching. Still, until further notice, you’d be wise to assume the worse.
