Spyware on mobile phones is more common and more invasive, than ever. Whether installed by a suspicious partner, a malicious app, or in rare cases through state-sponsored surveillance, spyware can silently monitor your messages, calls, location, and even your microphone or camera.
At QCC Global, we specialise in forensic-level spyware detection and mobile phone analysis. Using proprietary techniques and advanced investigation tools, we help individuals, law firms and organisations uncover hidden threats, restore device security, and document findings with clear, reliable evidence.
Our expertise includes detecting everything from commercially available spyware apps to high-level threats like Pegasus.
Our Mobile Phone Spyware solutions:
What is mobile phone spyware?
Spyware is malicious software that covertly collects information from your phone. Unlike viruses that may disrupt functionality, spyware is designed to stay hidden running silently in the background and potentially gaining access to your calls, messages, photos, and location data.
This type of surveillance may be installed via phishing links, malicious apps, or even physical access to the device. More sophisticated variants like Pegasus don’t require any interaction at all.
Some widely used commercial spyware and stalkerware tools include mSpy, Android007, TheTruthSpy, FlexiSPY, Hoverwatch, Xnspy, and KidsGuard Pro. While often marketed as parental control or employee monitoring apps, they are frequently misused for invasive and unlawful surveillance.
Signs your phone might be hacked
Many people ask, “How do I know if my phone is hacked?” or “Is someone tracking my phone?” While spyware often operates silently, there are some warning signs:
- Rapid battery drain even with minimal use
- The phone feeling unusually warm or hot
- Background noise or echo during calls
- Unexplained spikes in mobile data usage
- Apps you didn’t install appearing on the device
- Browser redirecting to unfamiliar sites
- Sudden changes in device behaviour after clicking a link
If you’ve noticed any of these signs and suspect your phone may be compromised, it’s important to act quickly. Contact QCC to find out how our forensics team can assist.

Spyware detection on iPhone & Android
Spyware behaves differently on iOS and Android, and so does our approach.
iPhone Spyware Detection
Our methods don’t require the phone to be jailbroken. We perform:
- Encrypted backup analysis
- Crash log review
- Detection of known spyware signatures (e.g. Pegasus)
- Check for tampering or jailbreak attempts
Android Spyware Detection
Android phones are more open to tampering and app-based spyware. We investigate:
- Sideloaded and hidden APKs
- Root status and firmware alterations
- Outbound connections to suspicious servers
- Hidden services running in the background
Pegasus spyware detection
Pegasus is an extremely advanced spyware platform used by governments to conduct surveillance on journalists, political opponents, lawyers, and activists. It can silently infect iPhones and Android devices using zero-click exploits – with no interaction from the victim.
Although Pegasus infections are rare and costly to deploy, certain individuals – such as journalists, high-net-worth individuals, executives, and legal professionals may be at elevated risk depending on their profile or location.
Our Pegasus detection service includes:
- Deep forensic analysis of logs, backups, and encrypted traffic
- Identification of known Pegasus Indicators of Compromise (IOCs)
- Review of system crash reports and security anomalies
- Evidence documentation suitable for legal or investigative use
If you suspect your device may be compromised, QCC can help you confirm or rule out Pegasus and other threats with complete discretion. Contact our forensics team today for trusted support.
Jailbreak & root detection
Jailbreaking (iOS) or rooting (Android) a phone removes many of the built-in security protections. Attackers may use these techniques to gain deeper access for spyware installation.
We check for:
- Hidden or residual traces of jailbreak/root activity
- Changes to bootloaders or system files
- Security patch status and OS version anomalies
- Attempts to cover up prior compromise
Even if a device appears “normal,” we often uncover past or ongoing tampering through forensic examination.
Virus detection & removal
Not all mobile threats involve sophisticated spyware. Many users come to us asking: “Does my phone have a virus?” or “How do I remove a suspicious app or malware?”
We provide:
- Detection and classification of known mobile viruses and adware
- Identification of malicious apps or browser hijackers
- Clean-up support while preserving essential data
- Advice on securing your phone going forward
Whether your phone is behaving oddly or showing clear signs of infection, we can identify and eliminate the cause.
