The following a a list of portable apps they can install on ones system without any knowledge .......
The gist being "CIA field agents receive one or more of these decoy applications, which they store on an USB. While on a mission, they insert the USB in a target's computer and run one of the applications.
Just like in the movies, while the agent is using the app, let's say to show a slideshow presentation in Prezi, the decoy app also runs malicious code that scans the victim's storage space and steals a list of selected file types. Exfiltration can be via the Internet, or by storing the stolen data on the USB itself."

Word is also that they can hack into Smart TV's to make them look like they are off so to use them as listening devices.

I cannot find the source at the moment but I also believe that they have Tor figured out also.
