The iOS system has always been labeled as "safe". Indeed, the iOS system used to be able to prevent many malicious software intrusions, but today it is different. A kind of malicious software called WireLurker targeting iOS can even invade iOS devices without jailbreak.

Earlier reports said that hundreds of thousands of iOS devices may have been infected. This malware spreads through USB, and by tampering with the binary code of the installed APP, the tampered APP becomes malware, even without downloading any data.

Research data shows that this malware has been downloaded more than 350000 times, but fortunately, there is a special killing tool for this malware, which can help group users detect whether their devices are infected. It is also very simple to prevent this malware, as long as you do not use third-party app stores to download programs, avoid unknown USB connections, and prevent some programs from installing software without user permission through the back door.

Without an absolutely safe system, even iOS, good usage habits are still indispensable.
