Forced to Jailbreak my Iphone
Written on Thursday, 1 of April, 2010 at 7:55 pm
The iPhone may be the best looking phone in the market today, but it definitely is not the best in terms of security. I usually let my friends view photos from my phone but I do not want them messing around with my messages and emails. I have searched the itunes store for a good security app but I was not able to find exactly what I was looking for.
A friend of mine suggested a great security app for my iPhone but he said that it will only work for “Jailbroken” iPhones. Jailbreaking a series of procedures that will allow applications that are not registered to Apple, to run on the iPhone. These apps are usually free and are created by enthusiasts who usually use the apps for their own use. They can be downloaded in online backup sites provided by third party companies.
I am not really fond of hacking into licensed software because I too work in a software development company and I value intellectual property rights. Only this time, I was forced to jailbreak my phone because there are no licensed software that meets my security needs.
