‘Unprecedented’ number of Apple users received recent spyware alert, say investigators | TechCrunch

调查人员称,苹果用户收到近期间谍软件警报的数量创历史新高。周五,苹果向全球 110 个国家的客户发送通知,警告其设备可能受到“雇佣兵间谍软件”攻击。数字权利组织 Access Now 的负责人 Mohammed Al-Maskati 表示,自周五以来,该团队收到的求助人数比往常高出 30% 至 40%,创下记录。网络安全公司 iVerify 也确认收到大量来自苹果的威胁通知。社交媒体上也有多人公开报告收到此类通知,其中包括一名乌克兰武装部队士兵,他称自己因核实了苹果的通知而确信并非诈骗,并提到其他乌克兰军人也收到了相同警报。
