Two people were arrested Wednesday
in connection with the spy virus Exodus, Italian police said.
The men are the director and a technician at an IT company,
police said.
They were named as Diego Fasano, director of E-surv srl,
which owns the spy software Exodus, and technical director
Salvatore Ansani, believed to be the creator of the platform
that inoculated the Trojan-horse style virus.
Both were placed under house arrest.
Police 'froze' some 80 terabytes of data belonging to Italian
prosecutors in the probe, judicial sources said.
Prosecutors requested the arrest of a third person but their
request was turned down by a judge.
