String updated in the repository
An infiltrator is someone who infiltrates a group or network by posing as someone they are not in order to gain information or destabilize the group or network. They may come from police, intelligence or military forces, from a private company or contractor, or they may act for ideological reasons or under duress (e.g., they are told they will be imprisoned if they don't work as an infiltrator).

[Stop Hunting Sheep](res://#stop-hunting) describes five basic types of infiltrators:

1. Hang Around: Less active, attends meetings, events, collects documents, observes and listens.
2. Sleeper: Low-key at first, more active later.
3. Novice: Low political analysis, "helper", builds trust and credibility over longer term.
4. Super Activist: Out of nowhere, now everywhere. Joins multiple groups or committees, organizer.
5. Ultra-Militant: Advocates militant actions and conflict.

Infiltration can be "shallow" or "deep". A shallow infiltrator may have a fake ID, but is more likely to return to their normal life over the weekend. Shallow infiltration generally occurs earlier in the intelligence gathering lifecycle than deep infiltration, when targets are still being identified. In contrast, a deep undercover lives the role 24 hours a day, for extended periods of time (with periodic breaks). They may have a job, an apartment, a partner, or even a family as part of their undercover role. They will have a fake government-issued ID, employment and rental history, etc.

String updated in the repository
Malware is malicious software installed on a digital device such as a computer, server, or mobile phone, to compromise the device. Malware can do many different things, but against anarchists and other rebels, it typically aims to gain visibility into the compromised device through remote screen capture and remote keylogging (recording the keys pressed on a keyboard), and to track the location of the device (in the case of phones).

Malware can be installed on a device:

- Remotely, with interaction from the target. This is typically done through phishing,[^https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phishing] which often requires the target to open a malicious file or link.
- Remotely, without interaction from the target. This type of malware is often very expensive for the adversary. An example of malware that has been able to install itself without interaction from the target is Pegasus.[^https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pegasus_(spyware)]
- By [physically accessing](tl://techniques/targeted-digital-surveillance/physical-access.html) the device.

See also:

- "[It Could Be Harmful! Spyware Installation Through Social Engineering Attacks in Italy](res://#could-be-harmful)" for an example of malware installed through phishing.
- The ["Targeted malware" topic](res://#topic=targeted-malware).

Microphones [found in a house](eae://#torino-2019-03) that were used to surveil the defendants.

In February 2019, the *Asilo Occupato* squat in Turin was evicted and six people were arrested—a seventh person, Carla, went on the run—as part of an operation called "Scintilla".[^https://malacoda.noblogs.org/anarchici-imprigionati] Some of them were accused of carrying out several arson and explosive attacks on migrant detention centers and other targets between 2015 and 2018.[^https://attaque.noblogs.org/post/2020/08/06/saint-etienne-arrestation-de-carla-recherchee-dans-le-cadre-de-loperation-scintilla] Some of them were accused of publishing a zine called "I cieli bruciano" ("The skies are burning") which contained information about entities responsible for the management and maintenance of migrant detention centers.

In May 2019, another person, Boba, was arrested and accused of setting fire to a prison building with a flare during a gathering in front of the prison where the other people were detained.[^https://macerie.org/index.php/2019/05/23/incendio-al-carcere-boba-arrestato] In November 2019, another person, Peppe, was arrested and accused of sending a parcel bomb in 2016 to a company involved in the management of a migrant detention center.[^https://web.archive.org/web/20200918130026/https://roundrobin.info/2019/12/verona-una-perquisizione-e-un-arresto] In July 2020, Carla, who had been on the run since the first arrests, was arrested in France and extradited to Italy.

After their arrest and imprisonment, the person accused of the explosive attack on the Lega Nord headquarters in Treviso refused to have their DNA taken.[^https://web.archive.org/web/20210518112509/https://roundrobin.info/2020/03/aggiornamenti-su-manu-stecco-juan-e-sasha] Some time after the person's refusal, prison guards searched their cell and secretly replaced one comb with another, presumably to obtain the person's DNA from the hairs on the comb they took.
