Attention IPhone Owners
Your Iphone can be hacked very easily.
Surprised!!!
Not to be, as this is the first time in the history of Apple that its device can be hacked. Yes it is true. The IPhone which you have owned can be hacked when a malicious code is injected into it when you browse a web site.
Though Apple decided to provide third party applications to run as a widget, it is easy for the bad guy to take total control of your phone.
Charlie Miller, Principle security analyst at Independent Security Evaluators says that IPhone and other Apple products can be hacked very easily. The hijacked IPhone can be used to send Span messages. There is also report that the operating system of this device can also be crashed. ISE and its team recommend all the Iphone users, to visit sites which they trust.
This flaw applies to the Safari browser which comes as a default browser for IPhone as well as Macintosh based Apple computers.
But one good thing in Apple devices is that , they are designed in such a way that they can autaomatically update themselves when ever a patch is released by Apple. I think Apple would be working on this and would soon release some path to over come this vulnerability. Next month, there is a conference by ISE team on internet, I am sure, that Apple will come up with a solution to overcome this hurdle.
