Privacy upgrades coming to Apple

Writing on its site, Apple says the new Safari's enhanced protections even help prevent websites from using the latest techniques to track or identify users' devices. Private browsing mode now locks tabs when not in use, allowing users to continue opening them even when away from their devices.

The privacy improvements were announced at Apple's Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC) last week, and are expected to roll out as part of iOS 17, iPadOS 17, and macOS Sonoma later this year.

Other important changes include Link Tracking Protection in Mail, Messages, and Safari's private mode to automatically remove tracking parameters in URLs.

Apple's new security upgrades will be available later this year

Craig Federighi, Apple's director of software engineering, told Fast Company that Safari is a pioneer in privacy and security, and this year it's a breakthrough in a time when web browsing is one of the biggest privacy threats.

Additionally, iOS has a new photo selector feature that lets you share specific photos with other apps while keeping the rest of your library private. Apple is also improving Communication Safety, a feature that will alert children when they receive or send sensitive photos or videos in the Messages app. This feature is being expanded to AirDrop, FaceTime video messages, and photo selectors.

Users can also share a secure set of passwords and passcode keys with others via iCloud Keychain by creating a group. Each individual in the group can add and edit passwords to ensure they are up to date.

Apple is bringing new features to Lockdown Mode, including more secure wireless connections, media handling, sandboxing, and network security optimizations. Advanced security settings are also being expanded to support watchOS.

Apple says enabling Lockdown Mode will enhance your device's defenses and limit certain functions, significantly reducing the vulnerability of those who need to be protected. This feature is intended to provide additional protection for those who might be targeted by mercenary spyware.
