Group Demands Apple Pay Ransom for iCloud Credentials
Apple has received a ransom threat from a hacking group claiming to have
access to data for up to 800 million iCloud accounts. The hackers, said
to be a group called the "Turkish Crime Family," have threatened to
reset passwords and remotely wipe the iPhones of millions of iCloud
users if Apple fails to hand over a total of $700,000. They have given
the company an ultimatum to respond by April 7.

details about several CIA projects to infect Apple's Mac computer

stolen Vault 7 data earlier this month. The CIA's Embedded Development
Branch developed malware that could persist even if the targeted
computer were reformatted and its OS were reinstalled.

latest edition, released last fall, won't put them too close to the
bleeding edge of innovation.
