Spyware manufacturer had access to data harvested by former Polish government, current PM says

Poland's Prime Minister Donald Tusk disclosed that a spyware manufacturer had access to data harvested by the country's former government. Tusk characterized the surveillance operation run by the previous ruling party as one of the largest political scandals in Polish history since the end of communist rule.

Why it matters: Organizations and individuals targeted by Polish government spyware need to assess exposure from data now accessible to commercial spyware vendors; security teams should monitor for potential credential compromise and follow-on attacks.
