The U.S. technology company Apple has contradicted reports that the U.S. NSA has unrestricted access to the iPhone. The company also stated that they had never cooperated with the NSA to electronic back doors – known in the jargon “backdoors” -. Incorporate into its products, and thus to allow third-party access

Apple will further protect its customers against attacks, “no matter who is behind it.” The “mirror” had reported that the NSA had a system called “DROPOUTJEEP” developed in order to read data from iPhones can. It was not assumed that Apple works with the news service. The NSA was on Tuesday not directly on the allegations, but instead explained that her interest in any technology applies to their use by identifying targets abroad. The U.S. is deceptive in data collection concern that innocent users of these technologies would not be affected, the report said.

Apple emphasized, however, in its statement, the group “constantly working to make our products safer, and we make it easier for our customers to keep their software up to date” work. Apple will do anything to protect its customers from security breaches and preventing hacker attacks.
