Apple iPhone Privacy Features: After the new update, it is being told that the privacy of the iPhone has become even stronger. iPhone is already very famous for its safety. Whether it is a thief or a police, it is not easy to open its lock. Let us know how strong Apple has made the iPhone under the new feature.
Apple has made the safety of the iPhone a challenge, not only the thief but even the police will sweat in breaking the lock!
Can Police Unlock iPhone: Apple has once again taken a big leap in terms of privacy and security. Recently, the company has added a new 'Inactivity Reboot' feature to the iPhone, which will make it even more difficult for thieves and law enforcement officers i.e. police and security officers to hack and intrude on the phone. After the new update, it will not be easy to break the lock of the iPhone.
Under this feature coming with iOS 18.1, if your iPhone remains unlocked for a few days, it will reboot automatically. Once it turns on again, it can be very difficult to unlock the device using digital forensic tools.
According to media reports, recently US law enforcement officials warned each other that iPhones in their possession were mysteriously rebooting themselves.
The privacy of the iPhone strengthened.
Apple has strengthened the privacy of iPhones even more. iPhone is already famous for its strong privacy and security features. Now an inactivity timer is working with the new update. This timer reboots the device in AFU condition into BFU condition after a fixed time.
What are AFU and BFU?
AFU means After First Unlock, that is, the phone has been unlocked once. Before First Unlock (BFU) is when the phone has not been unlocked even once, and it is very difficult to break into the iPhone at this level.
The conflict between investigating agencies and Apple
The inactivity reboot feature in the iPhone has come at a time when there has been a long-running tussle between government investigating officials and smartphone companies. Investigating officials want to extract data from the seized devices to help in their investigation. At the same time, smartphone brands like Apple present themselves as flag-bearers of people's privacy to stand out from other companies.
This move by Apple is a big step in terms of security. It shows how seriously the company takes user privacy
