- gfodor 12y agoHow is Apple supposed to encrypt data stored on servers they do not own?

- declan 12y agoThat December 2013 page is linked to from today's announcement, under "Learn more about iCloud security." See: http://www.apple.com/privacy/privacy-built-in/ http://www.apple.com/privacy/privacy-built-in/ Also note that today's announcement says Mail and Notes are "encrypted in transit" only. In other words the December 2013 page remains current.
- zaroth 12y agoOK. You win 2 internets. And fuck that highly misleading ad copy, Apple. :-( [Edit] - Clearly something is off here. iPhone keeps a copy of the last several hundred emails downloaded from my IMAP server, I would expect an iCloud backup of those emails would be "under the protection of the passcode" (a.k.a encrypted). That doesn't mean Apple is somehow encrypting the messages stored on my IMAP server. Likewise, it doesn't mean Apple is encrypting customer emails stored on their @iCloud.com (or whatever) email servers.... I'm going to assume there are just some wires crossed here, but I do hope they clean up the document and clarify this.
- ceejayoz 12y ago> iCloud does not encrypt data stored on IMAP mail servers Well, no shit. If they did that I'd log into my Gmail web interface and see encrypted gobbledygook instead of my emails.
