The Vatican Gendarmerie, led by the powerful Inspector General Domenico Giani, a former official of the Financial Police with a past in the secret services of Sisde, service for information and democratic security, may have made use of very invasive technologies to accomplish the survey leak of confidential documents of the Holy See.
The strand that led to the arrest of Monsignor Lucio Angel Vallejo Balda and ‘pierre’ Francesca Immaculate Chaouqui.
USED SPYWARE? The investigators of the powerful security service of the Vatican, in fact, it is possible that they also used the spy software of Hacking Team, Milan-based company finished in the storm in July 2015 after a hacker attack that has unveiled its commercial network in the world.
Elements that suggest that the Holy See may have purchased and used software to monitor the phones and computers of suspects, and not only, are located right between the files stolen from Hacking Team and disseminated on the Internet on the night of 5 and 6 July .
CONVERSATION, 2013. This is the correspondence, in December 2013, between the business office of the company in Milan and Colonel Costanzo Alessandrini, the number two in the Vatican Gendarmerie.
The object of the communication was the Galileo system, powerful software intrusion market with the intelligence of half the world by Hacking Team, but Lettera43.it denies ever having sold the software to the Vatican, “which is therefore not among the company’s customers. “
As we read in the key account manager of the same company in an e-mail direct to Alessandrini 19 December 2013, the Gendarmerie, during the general assembly of Interpol (which since 2008 is also part the Vatican), in 2013 in Cartagena, would have enjoyed the features and endless potential intrusive software Hacking Team.
ANYONE can be intercepted. In the same communication, the one destined to Vatican between those ended in the cauldron of the files stolen from the servers of the software house in Milan, explains Alessandrini to the main features of Galileo, in particular the ability to intercept any type of smartphone and any type of electronic communication.
Subsequently, heard by the weekly Espresso , the Alexandrians did not want to answer the question whether the Vatican was equipped with or without this technology.
The Gendarmerie with the same powers of listening to a proxy
Certainly, at least from 2011, the Gendarmerie is able to perform wiretaps between the Vatican walls and beyond the borders of the Holy See establishing relationships with independent telephone companies, like any Italian attorney.
So the Vatican can spy on anyone, of course, in cases where the promoter of justice we see fit.
HOW MANY TIMES YOU DO? It is not known, unlike the Italian courts, how many interceptions fulfilled the holy see, but it is certain that the Gendarmerie has also used the occasion of the investigation that led to the arrest of the pope’s butler, Paolo Gabriele.
PROPER SALT OF LISTENING. As it You know, under Pope Ratzinger the security service would have fitted in the basement of the Apostolic Palace two listening rooms, equipped with sophisticated equipment for wiretaps and environmental, and room for the monitoring of email and against possible hacker attacks to the infrastructure of the Holy See.
FINDINGS ON Lanino. And the security of the computer network of the Vatican would end in the middle of the investigation of the Gendarmerie within the last investigation involving Monsignor Balda and pierre Chaouqui.
Men Giani, according to the website of the Spanish Catholic news Religion digital , they would, in fact, also made investigations on behalf of Conrad Lanino, husband of Frances Chaouqui.
FOCUS ON THE SYSTEM SAFETY. The man, before the start of the scandal Vatileaks, worked for the Saint Lucia Foundation in Rome, a body dependent on the Holy See, as head of the third level of security of the Vatican communications system, known as “Archangel Gabriel”.
The level hacked, according to investigators that the Vatican would allow the leakage of confidential documents, was the second, called “Archangel Raphael”, while the maximum level, “Archangel Michael”, would not have highlighted intrusions.
