<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><i><img alt="iphone-6" height="419" loading="lazy" src="http://d2brer6wwumtdu.cloudfront.net/wp-content/uploads/2015/10/iphone-6.jpg" width="640" /></i></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><i><b>SP's: C</b>rypto backdoor entry isn’t the only way for the cops to access your data. You think your iPhone is the most secure device and you are safe from security breaches? </i></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Most people think that government has pacts with the tech service industry in order to get its hands on their data. But it is not so. Recently we saw Microsoft fighting with the government to protect your data.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">The latest decision of the White House to dismiss the request of the intelligence officials to push tech companies to create a backdoor access to the encrypted data gives a glimmer of hope to the citizens. After all the crazy surveillance laws and confirmation of echelon– NSA’s secret spying program, this comes as a relief to the public as accessing their private data would not be that easy. Well, that’s the general opinion.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Encryption has not been the best of the techniques to serve as a bastion against the law enforcement. In fact, cops easily bypass the encryption wall set up by the tech companies as a line of defence against the infringement.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Chris Soghoian is a principal technologist for the ACLU (American Civil Liberties Union) and he asserts that the standards of encryption that the users are provided is equivalent to protection from a thief stealing our laptop, but is no match to a dedicated cop who will ultimately get access to your data by any means, with or without a writ.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">iPhone or other user-oriented computers that boast of their security measures are also vulnerable to exploits. Even when FBI claims Apple to be the hardest nut to crack in the tech and security business, there are other ways to get entry into an iPhone apart from the crypto backdoor system, according to Nick Weaver, a security researcher at Berkeley’s International Computer Science Institute.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><b>Unprotected iCloud</b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Apple proudly introduced default disk encryption for all its iPhones last year. But where does your data go? It is saved into your iCloud backup and there is now law to stop the cops to screen through all the information from the iCloud. All they need is to summon Apple and hell loses over your privacy.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">So, to avoid that you must disable the automatic upload option in your iPhone.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><b>Touch ID Fingerprint</b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">The revolutionary security tactic as claimed by Apple could actually favour cops against you. They don’t need to ask for your passwords or be deceived by wrong pattern designs. A thumb impression won’t be difficult for the officials to get from you.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><b>iPhone Backup on Laptop</b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Many people have unencrypted phone backups on their laptops and cracking through one is not a big deal for the security experts. Also, the ‘pairing key’ that confirms an iPhone of the trusted PC, could be accessed and then used in any computer to retrieve your data.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><b>Siri Just Won’t Stop Talking</b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Even if your iPhone is locked, there are chances that Siri will answer the questions if the feature is not disabled from the lock screen. Siri would even blurt out your recent call records and contacts.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><b><br /></b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><b>Breaking and Entering</b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Well, a few weeks back we saw a bounty of $1 million for a zero-day exploit on Apple iOS 9. And, a method has already been devised to break in into any iPhone through its Airdrop BlueTooth connection. Although, the patch has been distributed for the flaw, but as we have always maintained- nothing is unhackable! S0 better raise your guards.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">So, we see the high-level crypto backdoor technique isn’t the only weapon in the law enforcement arsenal. You can avoid these simple vulnerabilities by turning off the defaults in your iPhones and take extra care for your privacy.</span></div>

Apple Makes Fun of Microsoft’s Windows Logo, Designs A New One

<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Apparently, Apple isn’t fond of the work of Windows designer team and it has decided to create its own version of Microsoft’s Windows logo.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">If you visit the <a href="https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT203521">Apple’s support pages</a>, you might notice something weird about the Windows OS logo. Apple’s rendition of Windows logo looks like a window- literally.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">The logo is placed alongside the official logos of iOS 8, iCloud, and OS X Yosemite.</span></div>

However, this feels odd as other recent developments indicated that things are getting better between these rivals.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Last year Redmond released the Office apps to iPads and a couple of weeks ago Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella used an iPhone onstage to demonstrate Microsoft apps.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Earlier, Apple invited a Microsoft executive onstage to show off Office apps on the new iPad Pro.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Well, this strange Windows logo could be still found on <a href="https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT203521">Apple’s website</a>. Do take a look.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Recently, at Salesforce’s annual Dreamforce conference, Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella used an iPhone onstage and gave a demonstration of Microsoft’s cross-platform mobile apps. Using the iPhone, Satya Nadella said, “I’m going to first start on this iPhone, and it’s not my phone, but it is an iPhone,” and everyone chuckled.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Further, Nadella showed that the iPhone he was holding in his hand, had all the Office apps and Skype from Microsoft, and thus it makes the iPhone a “pro” device. Showing off the Outlook app, Nadella said that Outlook is an email client, but it’s the best email client on iOS for Exchange and Gmail.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">All this development shows that this is the “new Microsoft” we are witnessing and it was impossible few years ago. Also, few years ago, Salesforce and Microsoft used to criticize each other publicly- but things have changed under Nadella.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">With iOS 9, we are witnessing lots of new features, including the new Low Power Mode. This <em style="border: 0px; font-stretch: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">new</em> feature could sound weird to Android users, but it’s a great sigh of relief for Apple consumers. We are also greeted with the other features like multitasking tools and a new way to close apps with a 3D app carousel (once again Android says hello).

No doubt Siri makes your life easier, but Apple’s default apps like Tips, Stocks, and Newsstand not only suck up your phone’s memory and screen space, but also create problems even if you manage to delete specific apps after jailbreaking your device.</span></span></div>

<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; font-stretch: inherit; line-height: 28.8px; margin-bottom: 1em; padding: 0px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Apple CEO Tim Cook, however, has indicated that good news might be around the corner. The default apps that do not find any purpose for the users, in general, could be removed from the pre-installed apps section.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; font-stretch: inherit; line-height: 28.8px; margin-bottom: 1em; padding: 0px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">This is a more complex issue than it first appears. There are some apps that are linked to something else on the iPhone. If they were to be removed they might cause issues elsewhere on the phone. There are other apps that aren’t like that. So over time, I think with the ones that aren’t like that, we’ll figure out a way.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Before trying to grab the upgrade, this is the first thing you need to check. Most of the current iOS devices are getting the upgrade, but it would good to confirm. All the iPads except the first one will be getting iOS 9.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; font-stretch: inherit; line-height: 28.8px; margin-bottom: 1em; padding: 0px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Along the similar lines, iPhones after 4S will get the upgrade. See the complete list below:</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: small;">Now get rid of the useless apps</span></h3>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; font-stretch: inherit; line-height: 28.8px; margin-bottom: 1em; padding: 0px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">After checking the compatibility, it’s time to clean your iOS device. As a result of the continuous use, it’s possible that your phone has collected tons of junk.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; font-stretch: inherit; line-height: 28.8px; margin-bottom: 1em; padding: 0px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">For performing the upgrade, you phone needs some storage and it makes sense to delete useless stuff. However, this year Apple has shrunk the size of updates to half- so you’ll be needing lesser space. Still, it’s good to delete the apps you don’t use and other useless data. Just go to the <em style="border: 0px; font-stretch: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">Settings</em> and tap on<em style="border: 0px; font-stretch: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">Usage</em> and then <em style="border: 0px; font-stretch: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">Storage</em>. Check the apps eating tons of memory and delete them if they are useless.</span></div>
<h3 style="background-color: white; border: 0px; font-stretch: inherit; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: -0.5px; line-height: 1.3em; margin: 0px 0px 14px; padding: 0px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline; word-wrap: break-word;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: small;">Time to update your apps</span></h3>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; font-stretch: inherit; line-height: 28.8px; margin-bottom: 1em; padding: 0px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">To make your current iOS apps compatible with the latest iOS 9, update them. By doing this, you can make the most out of the new apps from the moment iOS 9 is available on your device.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; font-stretch: inherit; line-height: 28.8px; margin-bottom: 1em; padding: 0px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Just head to the <em style="border: 0px; font-stretch: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">App Store</em>, tap on <em style="border: 0px; font-stretch: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">Update</em> and start updating the apps to prepare your iPhone for iOS 9 upgrade.</span></div>
<h3 style="background-color: white; border: 0px; font-stretch: inherit; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: -0.5px; line-height: 1.3em; margin: 0px 0px 14px; padding: 0px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline; word-wrap: break-word;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: small;">Now backup your data</span></h3>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; font-stretch: inherit; line-height: 28.8px; margin-bottom: 1em; padding: 0px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">This is one of the most important steps but Apple has eased the process using iCloud. This will be useful in case the upgrade doesn’t go smoothly. You can either sync your iPhone data on iCloud- or you can connect your iOS device to you Mac and backup using iTunes.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; font-stretch: inherit; line-height: 28.8px; margin-bottom: 1em; padding: 0px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">For iCloud option, just go to<em style="border: 0px; font-stretch: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"> iCloud setting</em> and see if your backup is up to date and prepare your iPhone for iOS 9 upgrade.</span></div>
<h3 style="background-color: white; border: 0px; font-stretch: inherit; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: -0.5px; line-height: 1.3em; margin: 0px 0px 14px; padding: 0px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline; word-wrap: break-word;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: small;">It’s time to perform the upgrade</span></h3>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; font-stretch: inherit; line-height: 28.8px; margin-bottom: 1em; padding: 0px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Once released, getting the iOS 9 upgrade is easy as Apple releases the updates over the air. Just head to the<em style="border: 0px; font-stretch: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"> General</em> option in<em style="border: 0px; font-stretch: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"> Settings</em>, tap on <em style="border: 0px; font-stretch: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">Software Update</em>and check if iOS 9 update is available for you.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; font-stretch: inherit; line-height: 28.8px; margin-bottom: 1em; padding: 0px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">If it shows available, download and install the update using the desired options. Things would be completed in some time depending upon your internet speed. Just make sure that your phone is plugged in and charging along with a good internet connection, of course.</span></div>
