Apple security update fixes iOS vulnerability

Apple security update fixes iOS vulnerability | Apple, Mac, MacOS, iOS4, iPad, iPhone and (in)security... | Scoop.it
The tech giant fixes a security problem in iOS that affected encrypted connections. Apple on Friday released the latest update of its mobile operating system. It's of note because it fixes an SSL connection issue, an important encryption vulnerability.




SSL, or Secure Sockets Layer, is one of the most basic forms of encrypting Internet traffic. Without it, almost anybody can see what you're doing online. According to Apple's fulldescription of the update, the software previously had problems validating the authenticity of the connection, and the software fix restores steps that were missing in the validation process.

Security flaws found in Apple's iOS7

Security flaws found in Apple's iOS7 | Apple, Mac, MacOS, iOS4, iPad, iPhone and (in)security... | Scoop.it
Two security vulnerabilities have been discovered in Apple's new mobile operating system, less than 24 hours after launch.
Gust MEES's insight:

 

In iOS7 this can be done even when the phone is locked with a passcode, as the voice-activated assistant Siri can be instructed to carry out the task.

 

The other flaw is potentially even more serious - allowing users' email and social networking accounts to be hijacked even when the user has locked and password-protected their phone.
