Apple warns that mercenary spyware attacks are highly sophisticated and targeted, so if you receive an Apple threat notification you should take it seriously: enable Lockdown Mode, contact the 24/7 Digital Security Helpline, and install the latest software updates, while remaining cautious of unknown links and enabling multifactor authentication.
Apple has issued high-confidence warnings to users suspected of being targeted by mercenary spyware (such as Pegasus), updated its alert interface, and published a new support page with steps to protect data. Recipients are advised to enable Lockdown Mode and seek rapid expert assistance through Access Now’s Digital Security Helpline; while a notification signals activity consistent with an attack, it does not guarantee data has been compromised and Apple cannot reveal targeting criteria to avoid evasion.
