You thought they were servers Appso well secured that an ordinary mortal has no chance of breaking into them.anceven break it and the vast majority of the world's best hackers would leave with a cross after the funus? Maybe that's not entirely true. Today, a very interesting piece of news from Australia spread around the world, which will probably make many of you quite uneasy.

According to recent information Apple faced a hacker attack on its servers, the security of which was actually breached. After Apple registered this activity, they immediately informed the FBI, which began an investigation. This led the agents to Australia, where they began to cooperate with the Australian Federal Police. Thanks to them, they were subsequently able to catch the hacker who had accessed the servers Applu was found, tracked down and detained. However, after the entire attack was uncovered, the agents were in for quite a shock. The hacker was only a sixteen-year-old high school student.
The teenager, who was apparently well-known in the hacking community, used VPNs and other methods to access servers to prevent him from being traced. Systems AppHowever, the serial numbers of the Macs from which the young man accessed the servers were recorded, making the work of the criminal investigators much easier.
Safety is for Apple very important. That's why he created a new authentication method Face ID, which is supposed to be many times safer than the current one Touch ID:

Investigators seized two from the young man MacBooky, from which he was supposed to carry out the attacks, a mobile phone and a hard drive. They then allegedly found a folder with approximately 90 GB of secure files, which the young man characteristically named “Hacky hack hack”. In addition to downloading a large amount of data, the young man was also said to have been able to access users’ accounts. The young man has already confessed to his crime under the weight of a lot of evidence, but the court will not consider his case until next month, when it will decide on his sentence.

Perhaps the most curious thing about the whole case is the motive that led the young man to do it. According to his lawyer, the boy is a huge fan Applu and his actions were supposed to earn him a job at the company. But of course, that seems miles away at the moment.
On the other hand, why not, right? When the FBI, CIA and other police unions routinely hire hackers with criminal records, why would Apple he couldn't hire a talented kid who could do something that a hundred grown and learned hackers couldn't. Sure, the kid needs to be shown to have committed a crime and he probably won't get away with it, that's fine, but if the kid has talent, he's definitely better off developing software security solutions than in jail/rehab. Do you know the movie Catch Me If You Can? :)
Exactly
What he did may not be nice. However, they should employ him in the security department and let him hack their system so that they can protect it better. I think so :)
I think she can really do it herself Apple in the end he will really be employed and this is just boo boo boo so that no one else does it :)
Again, his argument sounds logical, because a large company could be interested as a security expert 🙂
He finally learned his weakness - the Mac's serial number. Apple vs. Hacker - 1:1
Maybe they'll offer him a job. But they can't admit it publicly, because that would mean a rapid increase in attempts at further hacking. And now they have their hands full fixing the system 😂 Maybe the fix will show up in iOS
another Hoax, maybe you should start citing your sources….
I consider the message as a possible fake. 1) there is no link to a trustworthy source, 2) even if he downloaded 1000 PB of data it still doesn't mean anything, all the data up to the email is on icloud encrypted. In order for an attacker to profit from such an attack, they must also obtain the decryption keys.
The whole report seems "sensational", i.e. the journalist wanted to increase his remuneration.
Probably a future employee
And there are more of them

Does anyone know the name?
I think that in Applu won't hire him just on principle. It would be against their moral code. Like leaking information 🙈 …. But the FBI will jump on him like a chicken on a fly. They'll give him a deal and he won't be prosecuted. Because the FBI has been trying to break the security for a long time Applu and encrypt their data. Since they have access to them Apple does not want to give access even after a court order. 😜
