Описание

Apple introduced Lockdown Mode as a security feature in their 2022 OS releases that provides additional security protection Apple describes as extreme. Users and organizations that suspect some users are targets of advanced attacks must consider using this control. When lockdown mode is enabled, specific trusted websites can be excluded from Lockdown protection if necessary. Lockdown Mode was designed by Apple as an aggressive approach to commonly attacked OS features where additional controls could reduce the attack surface. IT systems and devices, including their users, are subject to continuous exploit attempts. Most of that activity is not from an advanced attacker and can be considered background noise to a patched, hardened device. Advanced attackers are of more concern and a risk review to understand organizational targets and use Lockdown Mode where appropriate is necessary.
