As Citizen Lab mentioned in their report, <strong>Pegasus</strong> puts its own protection above all else. From the manual, as quoted by<br />
Citizen Lab:<br />

nothing than keeping the agent alive and working.<br />
To this end, <strong>Pegasus</strong> has a large number <strong>of</strong> features that enable it to maintain its secrecy. It constantly monitors the phone<br />
for status and disables any other access to the phone by previous/other jailbreaking s<strong>of</strong>tware. <strong>Pegasus</strong> also contains a<br />
complex self-destruct mechanism which completely removes it from the phone.<br />
