You have to wonder if Apple even bothers testing their iOS updates with enterprises in mind. Their latest iOS update to v6.1 included a whole slew of wonderful bugs that just make it seem anything but “Enterprise Ready.” First of all the new update has been banned at a growing number of enterprises since it causes extreme load on the exchange server until the whole iOS device stops trying to get email. Maybe Apple doesn’t have any beta testing customers using Exchange?
Things get even more “Enterprise Ready” with the latest password screen bypass bug that showed up in iOS 6.1. It allows anyone with access to your phone to bypass your iPhone or iPad lockscreen and get into the phone app and phone book. It only takes a few seconds. This is the second time this bug has cropped up in iOS so Apple should have known better. Last but not least you have to love how they continue to get jailbroken and even their updates are getting jailbroken.
You have to admit it almost seems like Apple does not test iOS for enterprises or possibly the OS is just inherently insecure with Apple trying to bolt on security?
