6-Digit Passcode And Native Two-Factor Authentication With ios 9
Forget those who thought that apple would not invest in new security systems , today was confirmed the ios 9 will have two completely new security features. Not only will improve the passcode pin with 6 digits now also icloud id will have two-factor authentication.
– Starting with passcode , Apple changes the default passcode option from the standard four digits ( 1-2-3-4) to six digits (1-2-3-4-5-6), prompting users to enter a longer passcode during setup. This change makes it more difficult for thieves to guess a passcode as it increases the number of possible combinations from 10,000 in iOS 8 to one million in iOS 9.
two-factor authentication shows an alert on idevice that’ll appear when an iPhone or any other iOS device is being configured with an Apple ID that supports two-factor authentication. The confirmation alert on the Mac shows the Apple ID and the location of the device being added to the account. It also allows the user to “Allow” or “Don’t Allow” this addition. That same screenshot further hints at the use of a six digit two-factor authentication code, up from the four-digit codes used in iOS 8.
