Cellebrite DI Ltd

A maker of forensic tools for unlocking phones, whose equipment the Interior Ministry received as a donation from Norway in 2019. According to Amnesty International, the police and the BIA used its tools to unlock the phones of journalists and activists while the devices were in their hands, and then installed NoviSpy spyware on some of them. In February 2025 Cellebrite stopped the use of its products by “relevant customers” in Serbia, without saying which ones.
