'State-Sponsored Attack' Warning on iPhone: 'It's Possible That Some Apple Threat Notifications May Be False Alarms', Says Apple After Several Leaders Receive Apple Warning
"Apple does not attribute the threat notifications to any specific state-sponsored attacker. State-sponsored attackers are very well-funded and sophisticated, and their attacks evolve over time. Detecting such attacks relies on threat intelligence signals that are often imperfect and incomplete," Apple said.
