Apple reportedly devising own secure serversMarch 25, 2016 - 13:22 AMT PanARMENIAN.Net - Apple has spent years trying to come up with an internal solution that can handle the amount of data that the company needs to keep iMessages, photos, iTunes, Apple Music, the App Store and others running smoothly. More importantly it's also trying to keep hackers and spies out of its network by designing its own hardware, Engadget reports citing media sources. The technology news platform the Information notes numerous sources that claim that Apple is aware that off-the shelf and third-party hardware could be tampered with to allow access to data by either nefarious parties or government agencies. Also sources said that the company has even started taking photographs of motherboards and labeling each chip's function so that if a board shows up with an additional chip that wasn't in the original design, it'll know. But the only truly secure hardware and software system would be one created within Cupertino, Engadget says. By being in charge of the design and manufacture of the chips and boards, Apple would have control of its own security without relying on the cloud solutions it currently uses from Amazon, Microsoft and Google, the tech news website says.
