It would be nice if lockdown mode disabled profiles. If something malicious is going on in the iPhone it is most likely going to install a profile.

[@AllThingsSecured]

Don’t quote me on this…but I thought it does disable profiles (or at least new ones?).

[@brandonw1604]

@@AllThingsSecured the team at Mysk did a test and showed it didn't. I hope the behavior changed after they pointed it out.

[@user-ky2uk5hr5j]

@@AllThingsSecured Yes it already does block new profiles from installing but old ones you had before u turned on lockdown mode will still be there.

Very informative and very important video! Keep it up, well done!

[@TANKBM]

Thank you from the heart for making your videos available in multiple languages. You are a wonderful person شكرا من القلب على أتاحة فديوهاتك بلغات متعددة انت شخص رائع❤❤

[@cutti4617]

How would one know if they have malware or virus on an I phone

[@bellycar8702]

These videos are so well done man, super professional good stuff

[@AllThingsSecured]

Thanks so much!

[@Chikowski101]

I really loved your videos so much informative !! hey is your wife Indian ? just curious after seeing her name on your phone

[@wttfsecurity]

Great video. Is live voicemail working worldwide?

[@AllThingsSecured]

It’s not working like I think it’s supposed to in Thailand, so my guess is maybe not.

[@specialk9999]

Thanks for making this video. I have seen everyone talk about iOS17 but none of them have talked about the security and privacy of it. Do you think it’s necessary for regular people to use lockdown mode? Does having it enabled disable certain things from being able to use on a day to day basis?

[@AllThingsSecured]

Great question. No, I don't think *everybody* needs to use it, but as I said in the video, I didn't notice too much difference when I had it on. There were a few small differences, but nothing crazy. If you're the kind of person who likes an extra bolt on your door or an extra layer of security, it's not a bad setting to turn on. It's not absolutely necessary, though.

[@specialk9999]

@@AllThingsSecured okay thank you! I will think about it. I do like the extra security it provides but maybe not necessary when I am at home. Perhaps it’s a good idea when I am out and about though.

[@repatch43]

How much are the cell providers going to charge to support the live voicemail feature?

[@AllThingsSecured]

I'd be surprised if there were any charge at all. Why?

[@joedaman8436]

It's still in Beta mode. the full version doesn't come out till September?

[@AllThingsSecured]

Correct

[@jez-s]

Thank you for another great video! I love how straight to the point you are and how simple you make things…. Appreciated

[@AllThingsSecured]

My pleasure! Thank you for the kind words.

[@jasperpipes4222]

Any thoughts about Proton being a honeypot ?

[@AllThingsSecured]

Sure. It’s not.

[@-someone-.]

They still have the covd exposures setting? Why? Does anyone still use this? A big privacy issue imo

[@AllThingsSecured]

I didn’t see that. Was that in the settings I showed?

[@-someone-.]

@@AllThingsSecuredpause at 2:28 Exposure notifications. Below emergency sos and above battery. Not good

[@renaldoeshwill2649]

The silence calling feature is the bomb just test it now and it works like a bomb

[@AllThingsSecured]

👍🏻👍🏻

[@joshy9124]

Wait i have had silence unknown callers for a while and im still on IOS 16.6 did you not have that till now Josh or was that just something you didn’t know you had because I have my silence unknown callers on all the time only my contacts can call me i don’t have the ability to see what’s being said as the person is talking but other than that it’s interesting how your just getting it I guess every phone is different

[@AllThingsSecured]

I apparently wasn't aware of the silence unknown callers feature before, so I think what makes this different is the integration with Live Voicemail so you can still watch and see if it's somebody you need to chat with.

Hi josh 👍

[@JGI43]

@@AllThingsSecured hi josh , can I ask , can I trust apple mail ? 😀

[@macbitz]

The obvious question about your device being the passkey is - if you can log in to your email simply because you're doing it on your device, what's to stop someone else logging into your email without your password simply because they have your device?

[@AllThingsSecured]

First of all, we're not talking email. We're talking about your Apple account. Second, it's not just having the device. It's having the device AND completing biometric verification.

[@macbitz]

@@AllThingsSecured Thanks for clearing this up. Given my general paranoia about all things security related, I should get on board with this. The question that's always in the back of my mind is what can go wrong?

[@Jester33347]

If you’re concerned about privacy and security, why use Face ID?

[@AllThingsSecured]

Same reason you use KZbin, I guess.

[@Jester33347]

@@AllThingsSecured How are those even similar comparisons? I’m not giving my biometric data voluntarily to use KZbin but you are to use Face ID.

[@VelesMemes]

Still on ios 16 😂 never gonna install newer iOS 🎉

[@connorwilke129]

Biometrics data for apple? No thanks..

[@AllThingsSecured]

I'm curious why, particularly if all of that data is stored on processed on your device. This is the same data that is being required by most other phone manufacturers.
