For most of us, the security provided by iOS and macOS is enough. So iPhone and MacOS users can sleep easy knowing their data is safe safe.
But can they really sleep peacefully? It depends on the hacker decision. A determined hacker can discover a new way, and for the sake of truth, below we will look at two different ways of hacking on iPhone and MacOS devices.
Let's see how one can be used cable for infringement ενός Mac. Το καλώδιο O.MG είναι ένα καλώδιο φόρτισης Apple Lightning με twist. Αυτό το twist μπορεί να τροποποιηθεί για να επιτρέπει την access on any Mac connected via a Wi-Fi network.

"Eventually, I was able to make the implant 100% in my home and then integrate it into a cable," says MG, the cable maker. "This particular cable costs around $ 200."
The O.MG cable also has a remote kill switch that can be used as a way to hide the hack.
Regarding the hack on the iPhone, security researchers presented at Black Hat held in Las Vegas, a way to bypass iPhone ID's Face ID within 120 seconds.
It sounds scary, but actually, this hack requires the owner of the device to be asleep. Not only to sleep, but to dry off in sleep, since the hacker will have to place a pair of custom glasses on the face of the victim to fool the iPhone's Face ID system.
With these glasses, the iPhone "thinks" that the owner is awake and trying to unlock his cell phone.
