Introducing iVerify, the security toolkit for iPhone users

Summary: Trail of Bits launched iVerify, an iPhone security toolkit available in the iOS App Store that provides instructional guides for adjusting device and iCloud settings and periodically scans for anomalies that may indicate compromise. The app is built on iverify-core, the company's suite of iOS integrity and security checks originally created for professional developers, and the launch follows 2019's largest attack against iPhone users to date and a September iPhone Boot ROM exploit allowing anyone with physical control of a phone to run arbitrary code.
Why it matters: The source notes it is normally almost impossible to tell if an iPhone has been hacked, and that locking down a device and iCloud account requires changing dozens of settings whose trade-offs aren't always clear - so the phones carrying your executives' email and messages are running largely on opt-in protections most users never activate.
