New York- Apple plans to tighten security on the Internet to reduce the chances of being victimized users incursions as happened recently with stealing nude photos of several celebrities such as actress Jennifer Lawrence.
Apple CEO Tim Cook told The Wall Street Journal in an article published last week that Apple Inc. will use electronic mail and a quick notification to warn the hundreds of millions of people who use their services when there is an attempt to keep the data of their iCloud in new equipment, change keywords account or log in to your account from the new devices.
Previously, there was no notification to iCloud data storage, but users receive e-mails when someone tries to change the keywords or enter for the first time into the account of the new tool.
Apple is expected to send an additional notification within two weeks. The iPhone maker says the new security will allow the user to change the password to take back control of an account or give out Apple's security team about potential problems.
Apple also urged users to have keywords that are complex and difficult to predict and enable a feature known as two-factor authentication that requires a numeric code sent to the phone to get access to an account.
Increased security comes days after Apple acknowledged the hackers get into the computer accounts and some other stars Lawrence, with their pictures uploaded to the Internet. Companies based in Cupertino, California blamed the security breach on the ability of an intruder to guess the key words and through some other security measures.
