Project Raven was a United Arab Emirates-linked state hacking program based in Abu Dhabi and associated with Emirati security objectives. It has been described as an offensive cyber operation that used the Karma espionage platform to compromise iPhones and surveil activists, political leaders, and suspected terrorists. Former operatives stated that the program supported the UAE’s National Electronic Security Authority and contributed to domestic counterterrorism efforts, including disruption of an ISIS network inside the Emirates and assessment of potential follow-on threats after a 2014 Abu Dhabi stabbing attack. The operation is notable for employing former U.S. intelligence and defense contractors alongside Emirati personnel. Reporting indicates that especially sensitive targeting involving Americans was tightly compartmented and led by Emiratis. The program’s activities raised legal and ethical concerns regarding foreign government hacking operations staffed in part by former Western intelligence personnel. Project Raven’s known capabilities include initial access through exploitation of mobile devices, post-compromise surveillance, and intelligence collection against selected targets. Its activity aligns primarily with espionage rather than financially motivated cybercrime or ransomware. Known associated names in the available material include Project Raven and the Karma tool used in its operations.
