A cache of files taken from the company's servers revealed detailed device activity logs from phones, tablets, and computers monitored by Spytech, compromising over 10,000 devices globally.
Spytech's spyware including Realtime-Spy and SpyAgent has been used since 2013 to spy on Android devices, Chromebooks, Macs, and Windows PCs worldwide, making it the fourth compromised spyware maker known this year.
Spytech's remote access apps marketed as 'stalkerware' for parents to monitor children are also used for spying on partners, with the company's website openly promoting spousal surveillance, drawing attention to the legality concerns.
Spyware operators engaging in device monitoring without consent violate the law, raising ethical and legal questions around surveillance practices and the invasion of privacy through spyware.
