Apple has sent a security alert to some iPhone users suspected of being targeted by mercenary-type spyware. This is not a general notice sent to all users, but a high-reliability alert delivered when attack movements targeting specific individuals are detected. According to Apple and TechCrunch on the 18th, Apple sent a new threat alert to targeted users in 110 countries around the world on the 13th (local time).
Apple has revealed that in August 2026, the number of users who received "threat notifications" from Apple, sent to users suspected of being targeted by dangerous spyware, was "an unprecedented number."
According to experts investigating such incidents, an unprecedented number of Apple customers have recently reported receiving threat notifications alerting them that their devices may be under attack by spyware. This comes after Apple issued a new round of notifications last Friday, alerting customers in 110 countries and regions that they had become targets of powerful spyware.
