Apple has issues new set of threat alerts to users in India

Apple has issued a new set of threat alerts to users in India and 97 other countries, warning them of potential "mercenary spyware attack" aimed at remotely compromising their iPhones.

The same day Iltija Mufti, media adviser and daughter of former Jammu and Kashmir chief minister Mehbooba Mufti, and Pushparaj Deshpande, founder of Samruddha Bharat Foundation, said on the microblogging site X that Apple notified them of a possible hack on their phones.

The tech giant has been sending these notifications to users in over 150 countries since 2021.

In its July 10 notification, Apple also informed the targeted iPhone users that attacks such as those mounted on their devices “cost millions of dollars and are individually deployed against a very small number of people, but the targeting is ongoing and global”.
