Security in iOS

- [Instructor] Security stands at the core of iOS and is tightly integrated with the hardware and the software. Even if you don't know this yet, your device is accurately protected against attackers. Secure Boot is watching out for you from the moment when you switch on your phone. If you're installing a new app over the air or updating the operating system, code signing ensures that your software hasn't been tampered with. App data is protected automatically, and developers can further enhance the security of their apps using the keychain services or the Data Protection API. We can secure our devices using biometrics, but Touch ID and Face ID can also be used to protect our apps. iOS security is continuously evolving to protect us from current and future threats. Apple engineers develop advanced hardware and software solutions to create a secure environment that's not only performant, but also invisible to the end users.
