As a result of the changes that Tim Cook already advised that would occur in security matters to keep the privacy of users as safe as possible, we have just realized that one of them has already been made effective and is nothing other than the notice by an automatic mail from iCloud that our account has been used to access the iCloud.com service.
This has been enabled more than for reasons of improving system security, so that it is the user himself who keep an access control in the event of an unauthorized person. Tim Cook already said in an interview last week that he planned to include this feature in no more than two weeks and from what we can see he is well ahead of his prediction.
Anyway, we should not worry since only one email will be sent for each different device in which a session is logged, this will ensure that our inbox is not saturated if we proceed to make enough connections throughout the day, this measure arrives as a result of the case of nude celebrity photos which flooded the news all over the world due to a breach in iCloud password security, to which Apple had to step out to clarify that it was a very specific case and it was due to excessively "weak" passwords.
We are also seeing how it is being lent special attention to the two-step verification system both on mobile devices and on the desktop, this being a fairly effective way to protect yourself from cases like the one mentioned above, although it is not totally infallible. According to my point of view, any security system is always susceptible to being attacked and violated, but everything that is improving in this aspect is always well received and Apple should not trust in this aspect because both its desktop and mobile systems are becoming increasingly popular. more and more in the market with the largest user share and this makes the eyes of the "crooks" to set targets under OS X and iOS as a focus of attack.
