The “knock-off” Signal app Mike Waltz was caught using, which lacks security guarantees, can be hacked in “15 to 20 minutes,” according to a report.
Days after former National Security Adviser Mike Waltz was caught in photos using a Signal dupe called TeleMessage Signal, or TM SGNL, a hacker broke into the app and was able to access sensitive data. The app, which archives copies of all messages, unlike Signal, was infiltrated easily and within a matter of minutes all thanks to a basic misconfiguration in the app, the hacker told Wired.
