A recent investigation from iVerify, however, suggests this assumption might not be entirely accurate.
Of the 2,500 self-initiated scans, Pegasus wasdiscoveredon seven devices.
Still, it is noteworthy.
“It is doing that, absolutely, but this cross section of society was surprising to find.”
The infections spanned a range of operating system versions and installation timelines as well.
One instance was installed in late 2023 on iOS 16.6 while another originated in November 2022 on iOS 15.
The five others dated back to 2021 across iOS 14 and iOS 15.
In all cases, Pegasus was undetected by traditional security measures.
Those interested in scanning their equipment can do so by downloading theiVerify Basicapp.
It sells for $0.99 and includes the option to conduct a one-time threat hunt in about five minutes.
iVerify also offers EDR and Elite-level subscriptions for corporate, government, and other high-value targets.
