U.K. Supreme Court Opens Door for Spyware Victims to Sue Foreign States

UK Supreme Court ruled Bahrain not immune from spyware litigation, letting two dissidents pursue claims over FinSpy hacking; case returns to the High Court.

The UK Supreme Court ruled in The Kingdom of Bahrain v. Shehabi that Bahrain is not immune from litigation over its alleged use of FinSpy spyware against two Bahraini dissidents living in the UK. Citizen Lab researchers Siena Anstis, Natalia Krapiva, and Kate Pundyk, writing in Lawfare, called the decision a milestone for accountability in transnational repression. The case now returns to the UK High Court, where attribution, causation, and injury must be proven.

AWS makes it easier to spot firewall rules that have gone quiet

AWS Network Firewall added rule hit counts for stateful rules, letting teams identify unused rules and validate control effectiveness at no added cost.

AWS Network Firewall's rule hit count capability gives security teams visibility into which stateful firewall rules are matching traffic, helping identify unused or redundant rules and validate controls for compliance frameworks like PCI DSS 4.0 and DORA. The feature covers stateful rules in custom and managed rule groups, is enabled by default at no additional Network Firewall cost, and is available in all supported Regions except UAE and Bahrain. Data is surfaced in the Network Firewall dashboard's Top Rule Hits view and can be queried via CloudWatch Logs Insights or Amazon Athena.
