Apple has been focusing a lot on privacy lately. The company has introduced a lot of new features including hiding your IP address, using a private relay, hiding your emails, improved captcha bypassing and much more. With the release of iOS 16, users can now enjoy and use Advanced Data Protection when it comes to the data stored in iCloud.
Security Setting EVERY Apple User Should Fix (Tutorial)
If you are wondering what this feature does and how you can use it to your advantage, we have a detailed guide for you. Let’s get started.
iCloud data stored on servers is protected using encryption. This encryption can be removed using the special key, which is stored on Apple’s servers and can be used to decrypt your data. While this is a fairly secure practice, it introduces the possibility of data leaks in the event that the servers with stored keys are compromised.
That’s why the company has now introduced Advanced Data Protection, a feature for iCloud users that now lets you use end-to-end encryption for your iCloud data. This means that decryption keys are only stored on your trusted devices, helping to protect your data in the event of a future breach.
