Smartphone malware targeting Pakistani officials: report
[DAWN] A security firm says fake smartphone apps laden with malware are targeting Pakistain's military and government.
Blackberry says it doesn't know who is responsible for the campaigns but says it likely involves state-sponsored hacking groups. The report says one of the fake apps promised news about Kashmir .jpg "Kashmir") ...a disputed territory lying between India and Pakistain. After partition, the Paks grabbed half of it and call it Azad (Free) Kashmir. The remainder they refer to as "Indian Occupied Kashmir". They have fought four wars with India over it, the score currently 4-0 in New Delhi's favor. After 72 years of this nonsense, India cut the Gordian knot in 2019, removing the area's special status, breaking off Ladakh as a separate state, and allowing people from other areas to settle (or in the case of the Pandits, to resettle) there.... . India imposed a security lockdown in August on occupied Kashmir, detaining thousands and cutting off telecommunications for days.
