In 2017, a confidential informant informed the FBI that Jeffrey Epstein had a “personal hacker.” This information comes from a document released by the Department of Justice as part of ongoing efforts to disclose materials from the investigation into Epstein. The document does not name the hacker but provides details about their background and skills. The hacker is said to be Italian, from Calabria, and specializes in vulnerabilities in iOS, BlackBerry devices, and the Firefox browser. The informant claimed this hacker developed zero-day exploits and offensive cyber tools, selling them to various countries, including an unnamed central African government, the United Kingdom, and the United States. Notably, the hacker allegedly sold a zero-day exploit to Hezbollah, receiving payment in cash. The informant emphasized the hacker’s proficiency in identifying vulnerabilities. While the document reveals these allegations, it’s important to approach them with caution, as they originate from the informant and not from the FBI. The accuracy and reliability of the claims remain uncertain. The FBI declined to comment, and the Justice Department did not respond to inquiries. Alongside this revelation, the Justice Department announced the release of an additional 3.5 million pages of Epstein-related files, including over 2,000 videos and 180,000 images, many of which are heavily redacted.
