Advanced Protection Gets Stronger
2 Oct
Summary
- New security feature automatically locks devices
- Lockdown triggers after repeated authentication failures
- Builds on existing protection against USB and app abuse
Advanced Protection, a robust security option introduced last year, has enhanced its capabilities. It will now automatically lock down a device following repeated authentication failures within settings menus and applications.
This update strengthens the existing suite of Advanced Protection features. Previously, it offered safeguards like blocking unknown USB chargers and preventing malicious apps from abusing accessibility services, further solidifying device security.
