Apple warns cyber threat could wipe out iPhones, issues fix
Apple issued a warning this week after a new hacking threat.
The tech giant says there is a new cyber threat, but has taken steps to thwart the attack.
FOX Business Network’s Tracee Carrasco reports, “Apple has now issued a critical security patch for all iOS devices and for Mac computers against a potential hack that could come remotely via Wi-Fi.”
“The virus is being considered a potentially serious threat,” Carrasco says, so the company is urging users to install the updates to protect their devices.
The latest cyber threat is also a risk to Android device users, but Google has taken steps as well to block the virus.
“The vulnerability also has the potential to attack Android devices, but Google issued its own security patch earlier this month.”
