Apple says the iPhone 17 comes with a massive security upgrade

It is less clear than a thinner profile or trick camera lenses, but Apple indicates another upgrade in the iPhone 17 of phones that say it is part of “the most important upgrade to memory safety in the history of consumer operating systems.” The spyware industry is explicitly aimed at producing exploits of tools such as Pegasus to penetrate on targeted devices, a series of changes in Apple chips, operating system, and development tools are part of what you call the MIE safety enforcement (MIE).

By entering the IPHONE 17 and iPhone Air collection, we are excited to provide memory safety enforcement: the first comprehensive, comprehensive protection, always on the safety of memory that covers the main attack surfaces-including kernel and more than 70 used users-built on extension of improved memory signs (EMTE) and supporting them through the applicable procedures applied And science.

This approach is similar to what we saw from the Microsoft introduction to the features of memory integration of Windows 11, as well as a series of changes that have reached to prevent the executive weaknesses of speculation such as SPECTER. The Apple Blog post also mentions the efforts made by ARM with the METE to fight memory errors, which are supported on Google’s Pixel phones starting from the Pixel 8 series and enabling them to subsidized applications if you run advanced protection.

Apple says its implementation passes a step forward, with the ability to protect all users by default and design A19 and A19 Pro chips to improve safety, while adding memory safety changes to old devices that do not support new memory mark mode features. The company also says about its new dilution of Specter V1 Leaks that works with the “CPU’s cost of approximately zero” – where performance visits were a problem for memory integration and other safety features – with all changes that make “mercenary spyware” more expensive to develop them.

People behind the Grapheneos project, which focuses on safety, acknowledged the “main safety improvements” that will help iPhone Security in a post on X, but they also said they suffer from problems with the presentation and how IOS security for features such as MTE, which was already released for Android. We will learn more about the amount that was changed as soon as these updates reach devices and attackers take their role in an attempt to open the IPHONE 17 and iPhone Air security.
