Now the iPhone means popular and cool, can you give a call to others whenever and wherever, send massages to friends and play games by the iPhone. Maybe you will make the system to remember your username, password and other information about you. However, is this really safe?

The ikee worm (an iPhone worm virus which is named by its producer), has been unleashed, and a new malware tool which can steal users' private data from jailbroken iPhone has been discovered now. It is a malware tool which will run on computers or iPhones.

It has been discovered that the malware tool will copy all private data including messages, email, videos, blogs, photos and apps data from your iPhones. The program did all this without even making the iPhone user to be aware of its intrusion.The jailbroken iPhones which are loaded SSH and set to use the default root password, are vulnerable to the attack. So the best way to protect your jailbroken iPhone is to change the default root password as soon as possible. Besides,other solutions including of removing the SSH package from your iPhone or turning off SSH will also protect your information security.

It is well known that, SSH is a famous security protocol function, and its full name is security shell. It will encrypt all data and protect them from stealing and modifying from the "middleman" in the process of information transportation. However, it is not so security as it is advertised, and it is a paid application. So now more and more people select to use the free OpenSSH to instead.
