Politico: O companie rusă specializată în spionarea telefoanelor s-a infiltrat în agențiile europene de aplicare a legii

A US-based data extraction firm, Oxygen Forensics, is accused of being secretly run from Russia while working on EU-funded projects. The company, which specializes in digital forensics software, has sold its services to law enforcement agencies in Europe, including Romania and Latvia. Recent allegations from the US Department of Justice claim that Oxygen Forensics concealed its Russian ownership and continued software development in Russia after sanctions were imposed. The company was involved in EU projects aimed at improving the handling of digital evidence in criminal investigations. Despite the accusations, the software has been accredited and purchased by various European police agencies. The situation raises concerns about the integrity of EU-funded projects and the potential risks of using technology linked to Russian entities.
