Here's how iPhone users can avoid being remotely hacked.

According to 9to5mac, Apple is issuing warnings to users about a new vulnerability being exploited to attack iPhones with mercenary spyware.

Users at risk of being targeted have received emails from Apple about the possibility of hackers "remotely accessing" their iPhones.

According to Reuters , Apple has issued a warning to users in India and 91 other countries.

In addition, Apple advises users to proactively protect their devices by updating to the latest software and enabling "Lockdown Mode"—a feature that disables certain functions on the iPhone that are vulnerable to attacks.

Lockdown mode is available for iPhone users who have updated to iOS 16.

To activate this mode, step 1: go to Settings, then Privacy and security, and then select Blocking mode.
