It is necessary
to divide the passcodes iPad 2? All you need is a smart coatings.
Security
vulnerabilities, according to 9to5Mac, allows limited access to iPad 2 running
iOS 5, but could still be e-mail and iMessages and attacker to remove the
application. Here's how it works:
1. From the
lock screen, press and hold the power button until the screen appears
"slide off to power".
2. Attach the
smart cover iPad 2 and place it on the screen.
3. lift the lid
of the smart and click the Cancel button to turn off the screen.
The IPad then
returns home screen or any app was opened before the device locks. An attacker
will not be able to open any new applications, but as a number of commenters
9to5Mac noted, applications can be removed. In addition, an attacker can use
the spotlight search feature iPad 2 to gather information from e-mails or
iMessages.
Big deal? Not
really because feat allows only limited functionality in the iPad 2. And if
you're really worried about it, you can go in the General Setup menu and
disable the iPad smart coatings unlock. You will essentially make clever cover
dumb, but it's a small price to pay if you have some confidential data stored
in your message, or at least until Apple releases inevitably patch.
