Technical reviews find no spyware behaviour in Waze code amid national security restrictions.
PETALING JAYA: Navigation apps can record every trip a driver makes, yet pinning down where that location data ends up is far from simple.
Concerns over data security intensified following the government’s restriction on Waze use among civil servants, citing potential national security risks and the application’s links to Israel.
Two independent cybersecurity specialists have since confirmed an Israeli-linked server address previously identified by Malaysian anti-scam website PenipuMY, although neither could establish whether Malaysian users’ data had been transmitted through it.
