No security security!
I wonder about the safety of my devices. Currently I use the iPhone6, I've owned the original Apple TV, three different books of Mac, iPad and iPad mini, the iPods(various models), I am quite familiar with the devices Apple and their software. And I am aware that the majority of beliefs is that they are 'safe' with regard to their security features. But what is my dilemma. My ex is a hacker. And not just any what hacker... Is there was an award for 'The BEST hacker who ever lived' then he would have it and if it was a good thing then it would have it tattooed on his forehead so that everyone can see! He is a genius of social engineering, MORE it is be a millionaire. My question is, now that we are on the same side, how can I protect myself from him or he is literally impossible?
Do not have physical access to your devices. Use complex passwords that he is unlikely to guess. Use two-factor authentication as soon as it is available. Keep your operating system up-to-date software.
Because the FBI had to pay millions of dollars to get into an outdated version of the iOS, I think that your iOS devices are not in danger much.
If you have evidence that someone had tried to illegally access one of your devices or your accounts, contact the police and your lawyer.

Malwarebytes - do I need anything else (security tips)
Hello ladies and gentlemen, Apple Support Forums!
I have a few questions about this great little Mac Mini on my desk. Coming from a Windows background, I have a bit of inherent paranoia that needs a bit of smoothing.
I have read about the security of the Mac, on the defences of sandbox, Gatekeeper, never install suspicious applications etc. But I guess it's always better to have a scanner installed as well. Mac simplifies the sort to choose as my old Windows, Emsisoft Anti-Malware and Superantispyware programs do not provide versions of Mac.
Malwarebytes is one of my classmates that comes with the Mac version. And howdy to how fast it scans. O_o compared to Windows 7 minutes 30 seconds.
Norton was even crap in Windows and Avast, I have more confidence. Avira for Mac looks nice and simple.
So my questions are the following:
(1) do I need anything else besides that Malwarebytes and Avira? (And common sense, I got load of Windows security vulnerabilities...)
(2) as I understand it, Windows malicious software may enter the Mac, but they are completely powerless to do anything, just hang out? Under no circumstances can they interfere with my Mac? So as long as I scan with Malwarebytes, all bad guys he finds are for Mac and trash from potential Windows that the rest is harmless anyway?
Thank you for any assistance you can provide!
No reason for Aviri or another anti-virus application.

Secure erase is supported in the Sierra
After downloading Sierra I can't secure erase access via finder? How files are securely erased using Sierra 10.12?
Hello TaxiFish,
You must encrypt the drive with FileVault first. Then just delete. Apple now uses SSDS in most of their machines and these drives don't support secure erase.

This question has probably asked a thousand times, but I really need a preview. I have this application called SysSecInfo, it is a security application that has been removed from the app store some time ago. My phone started acting recently so I downloaded again to see if there was something to do, and the app now says that my phone has a 'custom on this jailbreak. I was worried so I made a backup of my phone and did a restore, then downloaded the app again and it still says there is a custom jailbreak. There is no app from Cydia, and it said that some things are enabled as 'xpcd_cache' are and all the 'security.mac' files are disabled. My theory is that iOS 10 broke this app, but it's really annoying. The last thing I need is for my phone to be hacked.
This app has not been updated since before iOS 10. So, Yes, I'm sure that it is now completely broken. I couldn't run very under the latest versions of iOS 9.

Problem with 10.10.5 security settings
I'm on 10.10.5 Yosemite on an iMac. I'm trying to give a program permission to control my computer under Security & Privacy / Accessibility.
When I click on the padlock at the bottom left to 'Edit' and input my user and password, it does not reject the entry as incorrect but it never unlock the field of accessibility for me to make changes. I don't know that I did this exact process before without problem so I'm confused as to what is happening.
I tried in two accounts different administrator and nor will I can unlock the lock or little down in the left corner to make changes for accessibility.
Any ideas?
I would add just after that I got my admin info there is a very brief moment where the accessibility settings appear to unlock and then it crashes again. (like maybe 1/3 of a second).
Also, I restarted the computer one or two times to see if it would make a difference... No.

How to set the type of wifi (WPA/WPA2) security settings on my new Apple Time Capsule
I just got my new 3T Apple Time Capsule and have implemented the new network, but I can't seem to find a way to check if the security settings WPA/WPA2 etc are defined. How do I do that?
By default, the settings are WPA2 Personal. There should be no need to change it.
To view the settings and make changes to them, you need to open the AirPort on your Mac utility. Are you still using OS X (10.6.3) you specify in your profile?

RE: iOS iPhone 6 s 10 how l remove or disable the slippery camera from outside the locked screen? This feature is a security and threat privacy for me.
You can not. However, I'm not sure why you think it's a privacy or security threat. The only thing that can be accessed without unlocking the phone is the camera to take pictures. No one can access your data already on the phone.

Sound is gone on my Macbook Pro. The sound icon went gray. This followed two downloads of password security applications and then deleted. The third I have kept and entered my password. If I go into the Time Machine to restore the system will delete the security of password I put in place after the last Time Machine backup?
Thank you for your willingness to get out me of trouble!
Hi Vincent,.
I understand that you are no longer able to control the audio output on your Mac after installing a few different security applications. If you want to use Time Machine to back up or restore your Mac at one point before installing these applications, it is absolutely an option. However, keep in mind that this kind would remove, indeed, any changes made after the point of this backup, including installation and configuration of said software.
Alternatively, you can consider having a look at the article in the link below for steps that can help to restore the functionality of audio output on your MacBook Pro.
