The first Security BSides Den Haag is in the books! After many months of work, we’ve built a foundation that will last for years. ​A massive thank you to our incredible volunteers, speakers, sponsors and attendees for the positive energy we created together in our first year. The challenge coin has Gemeenschap Eerst (Community First) engraved on it and this sense of community is exactly what BSides events were built for! #SecurityBSides #BSidesDenHague #EuropeanCyberSecurity #ThreatIntel

Yeah, so pretty much, like, there is this really sketchy company in Israel named "Paragon". Paragon sells a "product" called GRAPHITE. Let me explain the background and why this is very silly. GRAPHITE spyware which allows "customers" to remotely access peoples cell phones and monitor their instant messaging applications such as WhatsApp It is spyware. It is sometimes called Mercenary Spyware because it is primarily used by governments to spy on political enemies, journalists, and activists. Very little is known about Paragon, GRAPHITE, and their "customers". However, it was publicly noted by the Trump administration in January, 2025, to be purchased by the United States government and to be used to aid ICE. Furthermore, in September 2025 the Trump administration noted the usage of Graphite to aid the United States against "domestic terrorist organizations" such as "ANTIFA". ICE acting director Todd Lyons noted using GRAPHITE to monitor anti-ICE protestors to track "ringleaders and professional agitators". Citizen Lab and other civil rights organizations have documented the usage of GRAPHITE against individuals in Australia, Canada, Cyprus, Denmark, Israel, Singapore and (unsurprisingly) the United States. It is believed the Canadian government actively uses GRAPHITE in Ontario. Okay, so why does all of this matter? Yeah, it's super fucked up. But today representatives from Paragon accidentally leaked GRAPHITE screenshots ... ON LINKEDIN. Dawg, that image in the background IS GOVERNMENT FUCKING SPYWARE It shows phone numbers in Czechia, apps, accounts, media on the phone, "interception status", and phone numbers extracted. THEY LEAKED IT BY ACCIDENT ON LINKEDIN WHILE TAKING SELFIES
