In the warning email, the company said that Apple has identified a mercenary spyware attack targeting users. The specific cause of this attack is who the user is and what they do.
Mercenary attacks stand out as being rarer and more sophisticated than cybercrime and consumer malware, the email said. These organized attacks cost millions of dollars and target specific people. This attack is going on globally.
The email further states that if your device is affected by a mercenary spyware attack, attackers can access your sensitive information, even the camera and microphone.
