蘋果擬推送實時提醒應對iCloud攻擊
Apple plans to do more to warn customers when hackers try to access their iCloud accounts, the company said on Thursday, as it attempts to close security loopholes in the aftermath of a recent attack on celebrities such as Jennifer Lawrence.
在不久前詹妮弗•勞倫斯(Jennifer Lawrence)等名人遭遇網絡攻擊後，蘋果(Apple)試圖堵上iCloud的安全漏洞。週四該公司表示，計劃採取更多措施，在黑客試圖訪問用戶iCloud賬戶時警告用戶。
Apple is scrambling to bring to a close an embarrassing episode for the company ahead of next Tuesday’s press event at which it is expected to launch new iPhones and a new wearable device.
目前，蘋果公司正努力結束這一令人尷尬的風波，以便迎接下週二的產品推介活動。在下週二的活動中，蘋果預計會推出新款iPhone和一款新的可穿戴設備。Private photographs of stars in various states of undress flooded internet forums such as 4Chan and Reddit last weekend, prompting an outcry over the apparent ease with which hackers were able to break into iPhone accounts.
上週末，多位明星的各種裸體私密照片大量充斥着4Chan和Reddit等互聯網論壇，對於黑客似乎能輕而易舉地攻破iPhone賬戶，人們表示強烈抗議。
In an interview with the Wall Street Journal published on Thursday evening, Tim Cook, Apple’s chief executive, said new notifications about attempted password resets or logins would begin in two weeks. Apple will issue an update to its iPhone operating system, iOS 8, at around the same time.
在週四晚上《華爾街日報》(WSJ)發佈的採訪中，蘋果首席執行官蒂姆•庫克(Tim Cook)表示，蘋果將在兩週內開始引入新的提示機制，就密碼重置或賬戶登錄等企圖發出提醒。在大約同一時間，蘋果將發佈針對其iPhone操作系統iOS 8的更新。Emails are already sent when a password is reset, but customers will soon also receive a push notification to their iPhone or iPad when an iCloud backup is restored, or their account is used to log into an account on a new device.
眼下，密碼重置時系統已經會發送電子郵件。不過，要不了多久，在用戶iCloud備份被還原，或用戶賬號被人在新設備上用於登錄時，用戶將在iPhone或iPad上收到推送通知。目前，當用戶的iMessage或FaceTime賬戶註冊新的設備時，系統會發出類似通知。
