Μετά την μεγάλη διαρροή φωτογραφιών διασημοτήτων του περασμένου μήνα, η Apple ενεργοποίησε μια διαδικασία control identity two factors for access to iCloud.
The two-factor authentication process requires an additional four-digit code to be entered access that is dynamically generated, and sent to the user's trusted device, in addition to the usual password.

Once a user is confirmed, they can access their iClud data that will remain unlocked to close the browser window or disconnect from their account.
In a message to users, the Apple Lossless Audio CODEC (ALAC), said that if you use iCloud with any third-party apps like Microsoft Outlook ή το Mozilla Thunderbird, θα μπορούσαν να δημιουργήσουν ειδικούς κωδικούς για τις εφαρμογές που θα επιτρέπουν στο χρήστη να συνδεθεί με ασφάλεια, ακόμη και αν η εφαρμογή δεν υποστηρίζει την authentication two factors.
The company reported that 2 agent passwords will be required by 1 in October.
