SuperSpy - The Pegasus spyware

-
The Pegasus spyware developed by NSO group, an Israel Cyberarm firm, can infiltrate into smartphones especially all Android and few versions of iOS systems.

This SpyWare transmitted to a target smartphone by a WhatsApp call (entres into the phone even call is not answered/attended)

It doesn't transmit data when the mobile is roaming, unless it is connected to WIFI. This for avoiding security which might results to high data charges.
Designed as never to use more than 5% of free space in the targeted smartphone
When unavailable to transmit, it collects data from targeted smartphone and saves in it's own encrypted buffer
Automatically removes data from buffer as first-in first-out basis if it is unable to transmit data for a while

Once Pegasus enters the target smartphone, it can collect passwords and will have access to the data that is already in the targeted smartphone including: photos, videos, messages, microphone, browing history, contact details, location and it can even use camera to take snapshots of you and screenshots of the targeted smartphone.

Here is a list of affected devices:

WhatsApp for Android prior to V2.19.134
WhatsApp Business for Android prior to V2.19.44
WhatsApp for iOS prior to V2.19.51
WhatsApp Business for iOS prior to V2.19.51
WhatsApp for Windows phone prior to V2.18.348
WhatsApp Business for Tizen prior to V2.18.15
