Mobile device security firm iVerify is publishing findings from a spyware detection feature it launched in May .

The company's " Mobile Threat Hunting " feature uses a combination of malware signature-based detection, heuristics, and machine learning to look for anomalies in iOS and Android device activity or telltale signs of spyware infection.

The feature also flagged suspected nation state activity on the mobile devices of two Harris-Walz campaign officials.
