As per the latest update from the iPhone world, Apple has introduced a very important security feature in its latest version of iPhone’s software. Though, very rarely used by third party applications, this new feature is making users vulnerable to a targeted attack, which is serious concern.
Known as address space layout randomization or ASLR, this new feature of iPhone actually randomizes key pieces of data in the iPhone, thereby making it difficult for attackers to find where they are stored. Another component of ASLR, known as position independent executable hides executable code that can be used by hackers to carry out attacks.
Although the iPhone and the iPad are great devices, somehow the security aspect in them remains a concern. Even the latest iPad isn’t as secure as it should have been. This can be primarily attributed to the fact that they do not have an in built encryption, which makes our personal data vulnerable against hackers and viruses. However, there are many third party security app vendors who have come up with apps that will somewhat decrease the vulnerability. One such application is the SplashID by SplashData Inc, which will store all your personal and financial details.
