[QUOTE="Zero Knowledge, post: 1085528, member: 57429"] It's possible but difficult from what I've read and heard. Unless your a high priority target like a terrorist or 'enemy of the state' as such you probably don't need to worry. I'd be more worried about web tracking and fingerprinting across applications and browsers these days than anything else. Saying that iPhone bugs/exploits are always in high demand and where there is a market someone will supply for the right price. So yes, exploits exist but are rarely used unless your top ten for FBI or on some target list by some nation state. And you won't find a malware scanner for the iPhone. Apple doesn't allow it due to what they call 'security reasons'. You just have to trust in Apple and hope they patch vulnerabilities as soon as possible. [/QUOTE]
