Apple has released a new major security update for iPhone users called 'Stolen Device Protection' which adds an extra layer of protection to prevent thieves from accessing personal data.
To use Stolen Device Protection, users must have two-factor authentication and 'Find My' enabled for their Apple ID account.
The update requires users to enter biometric data (Face ID or Touch ID) to access data or make changes, and has an hour-long security delay for sensitive actions.
