Vatican and Israel implicated in Italian hacking scandal, leaked files reveal – POLITICO

Other countries are likely to be pulled into the Italian investigation.

Calamucci, who previously boasted of penetrating the Pentagon with the Anonymous hacktivist collective, frequently referenced dozens of hackers working for him in Colchester, England. The firm also made use of servers in the United States and Lithuania, where they felt they were less vulnerable, according to leaked documents.

Prosecutors have ordered the seizure of a server in Lithuania and are evaluating whether to make a request to investigators in the U.K., according to reports in Italian media.

Four suspects who are currently under house arrest in relation to the case attended a hearing in Milan on Thursday, but refused to answer the judge’s questions.

Antonia Augimeri and Paolo Simonetti, lawyers for former police investigator Carmine Gallo, who is a partner in Equalize, and IT consultant Calamucci, said Gallo intended to oppose the charges but would be able to have a “fruitful” discussion with investigators only when he had seen all the legal documents. 

Calamucci is “willing to clarify his position” as soon as a complete picture of the investigation is outlined, the lawyers said. Some of the allegations raised against him “are empirically unfeasible,” the lawyers added.
