Mobile hacking is advancing by great strides, and it’s getting easier and easier to find a tool powerful enough to extract information from a compromised device. This time, the experts of the cyber security course of the International Institute of Cyber Security (IICS) will show you how HaxRat works, a hacking tool for mobile devices available to almost any user.
HaxRat is a cloud-based android remote control script developed with Node.js with which it is possible to block calls on the target device, in addition to activating the microphone, intercepting notifications and spying on files in the device’s memory.
