iOS 15.4 enable users to unlock their iPhone while wearing a mask- who can use this feature and more!

apple-face-id-unlock

Wearing masks has become a new reality for the past two years now. Due to the whole Pandemic situation arising in the world, masks have been an integral part of our identities, however, for the Apple users, they prevailed as the worst nightmare. iPhone works on the face unlocking feature, and due to the whole mask restrictions, it was difficult for the users to unlock their phone while on the move with their masks on. Therefore, Apple has managed to find a way around the problem of using FaceID while using masks. What is it? Let’s find out!

Face ID with mask on

Since the government is very strict with making masks a necessity before venturing out, this feature on iPhone has been awaited a lot. As many iPhone users prefer face unlocking rather than fingerprint unlocking, FaceID with a mask feature is the catch for every user.

Although an iPhone can be unlocked even with a mask on only if you have an apple watch. This new update removes the need for an Apple watch. Face ID with a mask works by recognizing the area around the eyes when the mask is on, not the most secure but convenient for sure. Unlike Face ID with the Apple Watch, the mask version works with Apple pay and can be used to authenticate third-party apps as well.

With this new update, Apple has also created a shortcut on the screen to enter the passcode immediately. The passcode option will appear on the screen as soon as you unlock the device, eliminating the time to wait or the FaceID to attempt unlocking unsuccessfully.

Who can use this feature?

Unfortunately, if you have iPhone 11 or earlier, you will not find the Face ID with mask feature even after updating to iOS 15.4, nor will you have the option to toggle it on in the Settings app.

Face ID with the mask is limited to Apple’s newest iPhones, even though the face lock feature was introduced with the launch of the iPhone X. The new Face ID with mask feature only works on iPhone 12 and iPhone 13 Generations. Thus, you must have an ?iPhone 12?, 12 mini, 12 Pro, 12 Pro Max or an iPhone 13 mini, 13 Pro, or 13 Pro Max to avail of this feature.

It underscores the need for robust backup systems and diversified IT infrastructure

Microsoft this week revealed that it countered a record number of distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attacks against its Azure customers. According to a blog post by the company, it is the largest mitigated attack in history.

The attack originated from roughly 10,000 sources across the world. It used a combination of numerous attack methods for UDP reflection on port 80, including SSDP, CLDAP, DNS, and NTP. The attack lasted around 15 minutes.

Azure Networking product manager Alethea Toh said, “This was a distributed attack originating from approximately 10,000 sources and from multiple countries across the globe, including the United States, China, South Korea, Russia, Thailand, India, Vietnam, Iran, Indonesia, and Taiwan”.

One of the DDoS attacks, which lasted 15 minutes and targeted an unknown Azure customer in Asia, occurred in November of last year. It had a peak throughput of 3.47 terabits per second (Tbps) and a packet rate of 340 million packets per second (pps), making it the largest cyberattack ever reported in history.

Then, in December, Microsoft announced that it had thwarted two further attacks with a combined bandwidth of more than 2.5 Tbps, both targeting Asian consumers. The first attack was a 3.25 Tbps UDP flood that lasted just over five minutes, while the second was a 2.55 Tbps UDP flood that lingered just a little over five minutes.

These attacks are part of an unprecedented number of attacks seen around the world in the second half of 2021, according to Microsoft. In October, the tech behemoth saw a 30-fold increase in DDoS attacks in India alone.

“Our customers do not have to worry about how to protect their workloads in Azure in these cases,” the company wrote in the report. “Azure’s DDoS protection platform, which is based on distributed DDoS detection and mitigation pipelines, can scale massively to absorb the biggest volume of DDoS attacks and provide our customers with the level of protection they require.”

The company also stated that its DDoS security services will continuously monitor its customers’ web services and cleanse any malicious traffic from the Azure network before it can disrupt services.

With an aim to empower users to directly use Plus Codes addresses for their daily needs, a new feature has been launched by Google Maps. According to the latest update, Android users can use their current location to find the Plus Codes address for their home.

“Plus Codes are free, open-sourced, digital addresses that provide simple and accurate addresses for any place on Earth, including for places that don’t have accurate formal addresses. Instead of street and locality names, Plus Codes are based on latitude and longitude, and are displayed as a short sequence of numbers and letters that provide accuracy right up to the doorstep,” informs Amanda Bishop, Product Manager, Google Maps.
According to the Company, Plus Codes is being used by NGOs in India since its launch in 2018. Plus Codes also ease the discovery of and navigation to businesses.

Use of Plus Codes ensures seamless navigation to the exact location. “When saving a ‘Home’ location on Google Maps, Android users in India will see a new “Use your current location” that uses their phone’s location to generate a Plus Code (if the location precision meets minimum thresholds,) which they can then use as their Home address. Google Maps has also added a section at the top of the ‘Saved’ tab to make it easier to retrieve, copy, and share these home addresses. The feature is currently available on Android only, with iOS following soon,” reads a blog post by Bishop.

“We piloted this feature in India a month ago, and are thrilled to share that over 300,000 users in India have already found their home’s address using Plus Codes. We are looking forward to expanding to more types of places (beyond just ‘Home’ and ’Work’), and are actively looking for opportunities to partner with e-commerce, logistics, and delivery companies, to scale up the experience to more people across the world,” adds Bishop.
