HBO Max vs. AppleTV+, New iPhone Jailbreak The Week's Stories: HBO Max launches May 27th, and everyone is confused about it. New jailbreak works on all iPhones, even on the most recent iOS 13.5. Is there any reason to jailbreak an iPhone anymore? iOS 13.5 is out with the Apple/Google Covid contact tracing API. Here's why contact tracing apps will never work. Why the iPhone 12 won't have USB-C, and the next iPhone won't even have a charging port Apple fixes "This app is no longer shared with you" bug on iOS Apple will replace Mac Messages app with a Catalyst version when iOS 14 comes out Mythic Quest's Apple TV+ Quarantine Episode was shot entirely on iPhones.

 Hands-On Mac 10: Using FileVault to Secure Your Data | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 10:11

Filevault is Apple's proprietary full-disk encryption technology. It uses XTS-AES encryption, the industry-standard used by Microsoft's BitLocker, and the open-source Veracrypt among many others. It's fast, secure, and thanks to hardware support built-into all Macs with the T2 chip, it protects you without impacting efficiency or performance. Filevault is so efficient that it's on by default on all Macs sold today. Why would you want to turn on Filevault on an older Mac? Suppose you lose your Mac. Anyone who has it could bypass your account login and access the disk directly. Which means anything your store on your hard drive would be vulnerable. Modern smartphones are encrypted, so should be the drive on your Mac. Macs shipped with OS X Lion and later offer Filevault 2 - and that's the version we're referring to here. The original version was fairly limited. Filevault 2 is a great choice for all Mac users. When FileVault is enabled the system invites the user to create a master password for the computer. If a user password is forgotten, the master password or recovery key may be used to decrypt the files instead. Launch **System Preferences**. Select **Security & Privacy**. Click the **Lock** icon to enable changes. Read the **WARNING**. Click **Turn On FileVault**. You must make a choice on whether you want to use your iCloud account as a key to unlock your encrypted disk or to create a recovery key. If you plan on having highly sensitive data that you want to ensure that no one but you can get access to, the select to create a recovery key. Otherwise choose to **Allow my iCloud Account to unlock my disk**. If you've chosen to create a recovery key you must **store it in a safe place** not on your hard drive where you'll be able to retrieve it for recovery purposes. Otherwise your data will be unrecoverable. Instead of using FileVault to encrypt a user's home directory, using Disk Utility a user can create an encrypted disk image themselves and store any subset of their home directory in there (for example, ~/Documents/private). This encrypted image behaves similar to a Filevault encrypted home directory but is under the user's maintenance. Users who use FileVault 2 in OS X 10.9 and above can validate their key correctly works after encryption by running sudo fdesetup validaterecovery in Terminal after encryption has finished. The key must be in form xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx and will return true if correct.
