This week, we're running all the way down to the other end of the age spectrum to look at the ways troublesome bad actors might target your kids. We'll also discuss how these nefarious rogues may set their sights on your children as a way to target you, the parent, as their endgame. ]]> 2017-12-28T19:34:16+00:00 https://www.securemac.com/checklist/checklist-69 www.secnews.physaphae.fr/article.php?IdArticle=455234 False None None None SecureMac - Security focused on MAC As we went into Thanksgiving a few weeks ago, we urged you to have some proactive talks with your family about how to stay safe while using their computers, especially on the Internet.

Apple works hard on the hardened nature of its HomeKit system and the way these third-party devices interface with Apple products.

Of course - we've covered that subject in many previous episodes, but things change. When The Checklist began, users were still walking around with iOS 9. Now we're up to iOS 11, and Apple continues to make things more secure as they go.
