Apple calls its users to update to iOS 10.2.1 due to serious security flaw

Although Tim Cook and his henchmen boast of having the safest operating system in the world and usually laugh at Android and the malware that supposedly invades us, all that glitters in the Apple universe is not gold since they too have serious security problems, specifically with their versions of iOS 10.2 and earlier that would suffer a serious security breach.

And it is that without giving more clarification than the notice that they must update to the new version of iOS 10.2.1 as soon as possible, a notice that has been sent to all users of iPhone, iPad, Apple Watch, Mac, Apple TV and other devices of the American multinational, the company of the bitten apple wants to solve as soon as possible a tremendous security hole that would be related to the iOS Kernel, which it would allow to execute arbitrary code with kernel privileges in any of the operating systems prior to this new and latest version of iOS, iOS 10.2.1.

Perhaps this will help Tim Cook and the top managers of the company not to laugh at the straw in someone else's eye since they may not be able to see the straw they have in their own eyes, which I see more than unlikely since the historical rivalry that exists between Apple and Android o Apple and Samsung it is one of the things that, like the hooligans of soccer teams, is carried in the genes. always talking about the healthy rivalry between team followers or, as in this case, rival brands or operating systems.

Anyway, though Apple has these serious security problems Of which not too many details have been given so as not to instruct hackers around the world too much, hackers who daily try to crack and find vulnerabilities, iOS continues to be today the safest operating system in the world no matter how much I may say so , and for the record that when I refer to the most secure operating system for mobile devices in the world, I do not mean that it is the best operating system in the world by far in terms of usability, and that is, as everyone knows, Android gives a hundred thousand turns to iOS in every way.

That iOS is the safest operating system in the world is due in large part or in large part to its completely closed and proprietary nature, while Android is open in nature to which any developer or curious person who wants can access its source code through of the project itself Android AOSP Open Source.

The supposed problem of Android and its supposed malware, Trojans and other viruses or infections, is due to the fact that Apple's operating system has not been as successful and widely accepted for a long time as the Android operating system which remains and will long be the world's most widespread mobile operating system. Hence, hackers or cyber-criminals around the world focus on it instead of iOS, and that is that the criminal is going to get a slice where he thinks he has the best chance of succeeding, and the best synonym for the word success now itself is undoubtedly Android.

I said, if you have an Apple device and first of all you want to be completely sure that it is invulnerable, at least for the moment, remember that You must update as soon as possible to the new version of iOS 10.2.1.

And if you want to enjoy an operating system like Android, a modern and current operating system, which with a bit of head and common sense it is just as safe as iOS but that offers you a user experience that has nothing to do with Apple's operating system, then the time has come for you to try a good Android terminal with Android Marshmallow or higher so that you do not want or be able to return to your old-fashioned closed design of the Apple's iOS operating system, in which to even copy music from your PC you will have to go through the martyrdom of iTunes.
