SAFETY AND SECURITY COME STANDARD

UA-45281186-1 iOS provides built-in security from the moment you turn on your device. That’s because the hardware, firmware, and operating system include features designed to help your device — and what you put on it — stay safe.


Security.



Malware and viruses aren’t confined to desktops anymore. They can infect mobile devices, too. Which is why Apple takes security seriously when it comes to iOS. For starters, hardware and firmware features are designed to protect against malware and viruses, while iOS features help to secure your personal information. Preventing unauthorized access to your device by setting a passcode is another way to help ensure security. When you use a passcode, it automatically encrypts and protects your email and third-party apps.

Privacy.



iOS is designed to put your privacy first. For example, if an app wants your location information or data from Calendar, Contacts, Reminders, or Photos, it needs your permission first. Your conversations over iMessage and FaceTime are encrypted. So no one but you and the person you’re talking to can see or read what’s being said. And features built into Safari give you the ability to browse privately, block cookies, and prevent websites from tracking you.
