How to protect your iPhone, iPad, and Mac from cyberattacks with Lockdown Mode
- Apple's Lockdown Mode offers enhanced security for individuals targeted by sophisticated cyberattacks, limiting certain features on iPhone, iPad, or Mac.
- Lockdown Mode prevents installation of spyware by blocking links in Messages, limiting functions in apps like Photos, FaceTime, and web browsing.
- It restricts auto-joining non-secure Wi-Fi, blocks unknown FaceTime calls, excludes location sharing, and disables complex web technologies.
- The mode prevents installation of configuration profiles, blocks certain app invitations, disables Game Center, and may affect AirDrop and Mail app functions.
- Users can enable Lockdown Mode on iPhone, iPad, or Mac individually through device settings, with options to exclude websites or apps.
- Excluded websites can be managed in settings to access trusted sites normally, and users can enable 2G connectivity if necessary.
- To turn off Lockdown Mode, users need to access Privacy & Security settings and disable Lockdown Mode, restarting the device to resume normal operations.
- Additional security features like Stolen Device Protection and Advanced Data Protection for iCloud are also recommended by Apple.
