Apple Warns Users in 110+ Countries of Targeted Spyware Threats

APPLE has warned users in over 110 countries about targeted mercenary spyware attacks, indicating that some users may be compromised. This spyware, developed by private firms like NSO Group, is used for targeted surveillance, primarily affecting high-profile individuals. Apple recommends users strengthen their device security by updating software, using strong passwords, enabling two-factor authentication, and employing Lockdown Mode, which curtails certain device functionalities for enhanced security. Users receiving alerts should treat them as urgent calls to action.
