Apple's Lockdown Mode is gaining attention after it blocked U.S. federal authorities from accessing a reporter's iPhone. The FBI couldn't extract data from Washington Post reporter Hannah Natanson's phone, which was in Lockdown Mode. This feature is designed for individuals at risk of sophisticated cyberattacks. It's available on newer Apple operating systems and limits app and website access to protect against spyware. Users must enable it on each device separately. Experts say passcodes are safer than biometrics, as law enforcement can compel biometric access. Lockdown Mode affects app functionality and connectivity.
