Bivol has access to them due to its partners from the Organized Crime and Corruption Reporting Project (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.occrp.org\/en\" target=\"_blank\">OCCRP<\/a>).<\/p>\n<p>A product for hacking and installing a virus on phones with Android OS from different operating systems has been presented.
