This book discusses the internals of iOS. It explains how the operating system works, security risks associated with it, how it can be used in the Enterprise, and the overall security architecture of the operating system. It explains how vulnerabilities can be found in it, exploits developed for it, and rootkits and other payloads developed for it. There is no other book that comes close to covering iOS on this level and the book is written by a panel of some of the world's leading experts in iOS. Overview iOS Security Architecture iOS vulnerability hunting and exploit writing iOS enterprise and encryption How iOS jailbreaks work Specifically, the book will cover: iOS in the Enterprise , Encryption, Code signing and memory protections, Sandboxing, iPhone Fuzzing, Exploitation , ROP payloads, Rootkits, Kernel Debugging and Exploitation, Jailbreaking , Baseband attacks
