Hackers claim $1 million bounty after remotely jailbreaking iPhones | Apple | ZERODIUM | Nobody Is Perfect | Apple, Mac, MacOS, iOS4, iPad, iPhone and (in)security... | Scoop.it
Apple devices are generally considered by security experts to be safe, and rather difficult to hack. But difficult doesn’t mean impossible.

Over the weekend someone proved just how possible it is to hack at least one of these devices, the iPhone.

The hack came about as part of a challenge issued in September by bug bounty startup Zeriodium, which offered up a million dollar bounty for “an exclusive, browser-based, and untethered jailbreak for the latest Apple iOS 9 operating system and devices” that was set to expire on October 31.


This new hack has implications far exceeding the million dollar bounty.
