I'm confused. I thought iCloud was end-to-end encrypted anyway, and I've never heard of ADP before. Is ADP encryption at rest, whereas normal iCloud storage is only encrypted from the device to the server?
- dmix 2y agoThe only difference is Apple doesn't hold the encryption keys when you use ADP. In both cases it's encrypted in transit and at rest.
- tome 2y agoTIL that Apple holds the keys to my iCloud encrypted data!
- AlanYx 2y agoFor most of it, yes. There are exceptions, e.g., Health and Keychain, for which Apple does not have the keys even without ADP enabled.
- burnerthrow008 2y agoYes, otherwise, how would the web interface (iCloud.com) work?
