Default Apple made its passwords easier to hack

A new feature

Security experts have warned that a new feature in iOS has made it a lot easier for passwords to be hacked.


Obviously no true Apple fanboy would rely on their password now that the fruity tax dodger has given them fingerprint identification, but the feature allows brute-force data backed up to iTunes, including credentials stored in Keychain.
Apple claims that its iOS 10 is the “secure version of Apple's mobile OS” which is not a particularly high bar, but this password blunder is a little serious.
