About Apple threat notifications and protecting against state-sponsored attacks – Apple Support

Questa è grossa!
Quali strumenti possono essere usati per indagini lo decide Apple.
Gia’ mi vedo Apple notificare un mafioso che sta venendo intercettato.
Cosa deve fare il ministero dell’interno prima di usare un captatore ?
Chiedere il permesso ad Apple ?
Ci saranno nuove funzioni riservate per i governi che piacciono alla mela (come e’ accaduto con le API del contact tracing).
Che trasparenza rispetto alle decisioni di Apple ?

About Apple threat notifications and protecting against state-sponsored attacks

Apple threat notifications are designed to inform and assist users who may have been targeted by state-sponsored attackers.

Apple threat notifications are designed to inform and assist users who may have been targeted by state-sponsored attackers. These users are individually targeted because of who they are or what they do. Unlike traditional cybercriminals, state-sponsored attackers apply exceptional resources to target a very small number of specific individuals and their devices, which makes these attacks much harder to detect and prevent. State-sponsored attacks are highly complex, cost millions of dollars to develop, and often have a short shelf life. The vast majority of users will never be targeted by such attacks.

If Apple discovers activity consistent with a state-sponsored attack, we notify the targeted users in two ways:

  • A Threat Notification is displayed at the top of the page after the user signs into appleid.apple.com.
  • Apple sends an email and iMessage notification to the email addresses and phone numbers associated with the user’s Apple ID.
