Ukhuseleko lwezixhobo ezilawulwa ziinguqulelo zamva ze-iOS, kuye kwavela emva kwenxalenye yesicelo se-FBI ukuze amakhwenkwe aseCupertino azinikele ngokudlula kwikhowudi yokhuseleko ukuze afikelele kumxholo we-iPhone 5c esetyenziswe ngabanqolobi kuhlaselo lwangoDisemba ophelileyo eSan Bernarido, eUnited States.
Ukusukela ekuqaleni U-Apple uyalile ukuyivula kunye nokwenza ucango lwangasemva oluya kuvumela abasemagunyeni baseMelika ukuba bangene nakwesiphi na isixhobo ngale ndlela, esinyanzelise abasemagunyeni belizwe ukuba baqeshe isithethi sangaphandle esithe ekugqibeleni sakwazi ukwenza njalo, ubuncinci kwizixhobo ezingaphantsi kwee-iPhone 5 Kodwa inkqubo yokufikelela kwiimodeli zakutshanje ze-iPhone ihambele phambili kakuhle.
Ngokwapapasho iThe Verge, iinjineli ezininzi ezivela kwinkampani zidibene neentatheli ezininzi kwinkomfa abayibamba rhoqo nalapho baqinisekisile khona ukuba inkampani eseCupertino sesona software sisebenzayo siphumeleleyo. Ukongeza, baxoxile ngesicelo sikarhulumente waseMelika sokuba inkampani yenze inguqulelo ye-iOS enomnyango wangasemva ebavumela ukuba bafikelele nanini na befuna.
Iinjineli ze-Apple zibanga ukuba Ukukhuselwa kwe-iOS kuqala kwi-boot ye-ROM okanye kwimemori chip ebandakanya isatifikethi esinokufundwa kuphela yinkampani. Ukuba umntu ongaphandle kwenkampani uzama ukuguqula uguqulelo lwe-iOS ukuzama ukungena ikhowudi yakhe, ayizukusebenza kuba abanako ukufikelela kwisitshixo esenza izatifikethi. Le nkqubo isebenza okoko kukhutshwe i-iPhone 3GS.
Isitshixo sokuqalisa siqinisekisa ukuba izatifikethi okanye amaqhosha asetyenziselwa inkqubo yokuqalisa ayasebenza. Ngaphandle kokuba yimigca embalwa yekhowudi mancinci kakhulu amathuba okukwazi ukufumana isiphoso kwaye ukuxhaphaza. Kwangokunjalo, iinjineli ziphinde zagxininisa ukubaluleka kokufaka lonke uhlaziyo oluqaliswa yinkampani kwintengiso ukuze kuthintelwe nawuphi na umngcipheko wokhuseleko owawufunyenwe ngaphambili yinkampani. Ithuba lokubanakho ukuhlaziya isixhobo xa sihlawulisa ebusuku libe negalelo kwinqanaba langoku lokwamkelwa kwe-iOS 9 eyi-80%.
Encryption idlala indima ebaluleke kakhulu kukhuseleko lwezixhobo. I-Apple ayisebenzisi kuphela isoftware ukukhusela ulwazi ngaphakathi Ikwasebenzisa izixhobo zekhompyutha zokugcina iinkumbulo zokugcina ukuphucula ukubethela kwi-iPhone 5s, ngokukhetha ukuKhusela okuKhuselekileyo okufihla lonke ulwazi olugcinwe kwimemori olungenakufikeleleka kwezinye iindawo zesixhobo.
