OyaYansa Posted August 25, 2017 Share Posted August 25, 2017 It has been almost half a year since WikiLeaks released the first alleged classified documents of the CIA, and the portal still has material that is dosed by regular deliveries in the series of leaks that has been called # Vault7. Today a new wave of secret files from the US Central Intelligence Agency has been made public, which this time belong to the ExpressLane project, the CIA's alleged tool to spy on other intelligence and security services in the country, such as the FBI ( Federal Bureau of Investigation), the NSA (National Security Agency) or the DHS (Department of Homeland Security). ExpressLane is a completely secret software intended to clandestinely collect the biometric data that the FBI, NSA and DHS liaison services collect throughout the world, according to the report by Julian Assange. The CIA has a legitimate branch known as the Technical Services Office (OTS) that has this purpose, with the aim of centralizing and sharing the biometric takes collected in the systems. However, participation in the OTS database is voluntary, so the Agency would have found a way to obtain the information. The spy program is installed and run simulating being an update of the OTS biometric software. According to information provided by Wikileaks, the agents in charge of the installation are not aware that they are actually introducing malware, since the infection takes place in the background while viewing a conventional Windows installation window. ExpressLane was intended to remain secret until the year 2034, as you can read in the documents. The basic components of the tool are based on Cross Match products, a US company specialized in biometric software known worldwide because its technology allowed the identification of Osama Bin Laden during the operation in which he was assassinated in Afghanistan. So far the leak is coming today, and presumably the next will arrive in a week or two. If you want to remember the revelations of # Vault7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
