The next iOS update will make it harder to break into your iPhone
admin 2024/01/19 14:50Apple’s stolen device protection addresses a major security vulnerability that allowed anyone with your iPhone’s PIN to take over your Apple ID.
Apple is expected to include a new security feature in iOS 17.3 next week called Stolen Device Protection that will make it far harder for would-be phone thieves to hijack your Apple ID and any financial information stored on the device. Right now, your lock screen passcode is enough to access or change sensitive personal and financial data, but with the update, thieves would need to use Face ID or Touch ID, and may have to wait an hour, to make certain changes. While Apple hasn’t announced specifically when this feature will come, it’s been testing it in the 17.3 beta since December.
