What you think of this? Apple come with the idea to store customers’ finger prints on the iCloud application for security reasons especially when it comes for payments. What is this measure all about, it’s tough to say, but I don’t know if this should be considered good or bad, considering that our personal life will be very linked with one big company.
Touch ID was launched with iPhone 5S
When it comes to security, Apple has some good tools and the most important of them it is already touch ID which was introduced with the iPhone 5S as a security device. Having this, users can simply unlock their smartphone by putting their finger on the home button. Also this way they might verify their identity or make deals via Apple Pay popular application. But a storage?! Is this good? Well, let us see!
Apple was involved in a security scandal in 2013 because... iCloud!
The initiative looks very courageous especially via iCloud if we consider that Apple got some security problems via this tool especially in 2013 when many celebrities got their accounts broken and pictures and data stolen via iCloud, most of them being nude pictures. So, considering this precedent, it is to follow if Apple customers will have the trust to leave such valuable data in the hands of the American company.
