Dozens of iOS apps fail to secure users’ data, researcher says

Will Strafach, CEO of Sudo Security Group, found 76 iOS apps that are vulnerable to an attack that can intercept protected data. Developers of the apps have accidentally misconfigured the networking-related code so it will accept an invalid Transport Layer Security (TLS) certificate. Without it, a hacker can essentially eavesdrop over a network to spy on whatever data the app sends, such as login information. Some of the 76 apps have 18 million downloads, according to app market tracker Apptopia.”]
