Apple M4 iPad Pro OS Has New Security Exclave for Camera and Microphone Activity

Apple has introduced a new security feature with the M4 chip on the newest iPad Pro, taking an existing system and making it more secure.

Interestingly though, a new discovery reveals that the just-released M4 iPad Pro includes a new security feature that Apple hasn’t told anyone about. As discovered by Guilherme Rambo, Apple’s M4 iPad Pro comes with a security enhancement that relates to the microphone and camera light indicators. Apple first introduced the microphone and camera light indicators—the little orange and green dots that appear when those sensors are in use— back in fall 2020 with iOS 14.
