Following Apple's announcement about new security tools, Constantina Koukou, Cyber Security Specialist at Check Point Software Technologies in Greece, stated:
"Apple is taking steps to put users in control of their privacy and security by adding optional features to the popular iMessage platform supported on iPhone/iPads και Mac. Αυτό το πρόσθετο επίπεδο ασφάλειας δεν έρχεται χωρίς μειονεκτήματα, καθώς ο τελικός user is now responsible for storing, backing up and securing its own encryption keys.”
“Our experience in mobile security, and although Apple is taking steps to improve privacy, proves that malicious apps, the electronic text/iMessage phishing and zero day threats are not affected by them.”
