Israeli Firms Accused of Using Ads to Distribute Spyware

A new study by Citizen Lab alleges that Israeli companies Discover-Tech and Candiru (Integrity Labs) used digital advertising to distribute spyware, targeting Al Jazeera employees and compromising 45 Windows computers. The technique, dubbed "Ad-fection," allegedly allowed spyware to be installed simply by viewing an ad. Discover-Tech's "Controllium" system is implicated in tracking and targeting devices. Google and the European Advertising Standards Alliance have already taken action against Discover-Tech, disconnecting it from ad systems and removing it from approved provider lists.
