Description

Almenta is a surveillance firm based in Bulgaria and run by Israeli operators, including CEO Ari Covitz. It develops Wi-Fi-based hacking tools, which it showcased at the Milipol homeland security conference. The company offers a product called WiNA-P, which enables a variety of attacks on smartphones by exploiting Wi-Fi networks. These attacks include delivering malware to extract data from apps like WhatsApp, Telegram, Facebook, and Skype, as well as phishing capabilities to steal login credentials through fake landing pages. Almenta also advertises an "Account Grabber" feature to identify iCloud or Android accounts by sending deceptive messages to targets. Alongside WiNA-P, Almenta promotes a product called “Observer,” which offers “worldwide geo location,” as described in a blurb on Milipol’s website. A brochure for “Observer” reveals that, with only a target’s mobile phone number, the device’s location can be pinpointed and displayed on a Google Maps interface. The company claims its tools can operate from up to 500 meters away and target as many as 50 devices simultaneously. Almenta's technology reportedly relies on tools from other Israeli surveillance firms, such as WiSpear and Jenovice, with costs for such systems starting at $1 million.
