Certified Ethical Hacker (CEH v13) — Question 182

Jake, a professional hacker, installed spyware on a target iPhone to spy on the target user’s activities. He can take complete control of the target mobile device by jailbreaking the device remotely and record audio, capture screenshots, and monitor all phone calls and SMS messages.

What is the type of spyware that Jake used to infect the target device?

Answer options

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C, Trident, which is known for its capabilities to remotely control a device after a jailbreak. Options A and B, DroidSheep and Androrat, are not typically associated with iOS devices and do not provide the same level of control as Trident. Option D, Zscaler, is primarily a security service rather than spyware.
