Apple’s event delivered a big win for security: Memory Integrity Enforcement (MIE), a system-level push for memory safety on iPhone and other Apple devices. The video breaks down why mercenary spyware focuses on memory-safety vulnerabilities, how exploit chains work, and why Apple believes MIE will disrupt 25 years of common exploitation techniques and make new chains significantly more expensive to build and maintain.
We also cover practical steps: when to enable Lockdown Mode for extra protection and Apple’s $2,000,000 maximum bounty for bypassing specific Lockdown Mode protections.
Context includes a rise in US investment in commercial spyware and reporting around ICE’s contract with Paragon Solutions.
