　　There are still more than ten days to hold the autumn conference, but Apple is in trouble! On August 20, the topic of "Apple exposes a serious security vulnerability" topped the trending search list.

　　According to CCTV Finance, citing the Associated Press on the 20th, Apple Inc. released two security reports on Wednesday, local time. The two reports revealed that the company's smartphone iPhone, tablet computer iPad and iMac computer products have serious security vulnerabilities.

　　These vulnerabilities could allow potential attackers to compromise a user's device, gain administrative privileges or even take full control of the device and run applications within it.

　　According to reports, the devices affected by this vulnerability cover almost all Apple products. Among them, mobile phones include iPhone 6S and later models; tablets include fifth-generation and later iPads, all iPad Pros, and iPad Air 2; and computers are Macs running MacOS Monterey. In addition, the vulnerability can also affect some models of iPod.

　　Apple said that it has begun to find the reasons for the above security flaws and corresponding solutions. And called on users to download the latest update immediately to patch the vulnerability.

　　Not long ago, information security service company Beyond Identy launched a survey, and the results showed that 49% of Android users are considering switching to iPhone, and the security and privacy of mobile phones are the main reasons.

　　The survey randomly examined the mobile phone security habits and feelings of 1,003 users, of which 76% of Apple users felt that the security performance of their mobile phones had improved, slightly higher than 74% of Android users.

　　In addition, many iPhone users said in the survey that they had never encountered any form of security breach, and some users even thought it was too safe.

　　Interestingly, from the survey results, most iPhone users tend to prefer the security of their personal information. Also prefer to focus on privacy-related information such as the location tracking of the phone.

　　I wonder if the survey data will change after this Apple security breach has passed?
