Technology giant Apple today announced a change in its new operating system for mobile devices, iOS 8 which prevents the company access to equipment without the owner's consent, a measure to hinder police records.
In a statement, the company said that the bitten apple, "unlike" of its competitors, has given up the possibility to directly access devices without the users password, something I could do so far.
"Thus, it is not technically possible for us to respond to government orders to pull data from devices that work with iOS 8 operating system," the company said.
This improvement in security protects the company itself, and hence, the Administration- any information that can be stored on Apple devices or accounts of users, such as photos, emails, contacts, call history, messages, written notes or multimedia content.
The new measure is part of an effort by the company based in Cupertino (California, USA) in response to the voices who accuse him of having collaborated, along with other technology too easily with the American Government and the National Security Agency (NSA) when asked data users.
For herself prevented access to devices and user accounts without having the corresponding personal passwords, Apple has changed its encryption system, and this is applied automatically once the user has chosen password.
In addition, and as part of that effort to distance himself from accusations of collaboration with the Government of the United States, said today that Apple has only provided data management "less than 0.00385%" of users of its devices .
