Security Bite: Apple’s push for chip independence will benefit device security the most<div class="feat-image">
</div><p>Since the launch of the
M-series processors and now the
C1 cellular modem, Apple has been slowly but surely moving toward complete chip independence. The company is even working on its
own Bluetooth and Wi-Fi solution, which is reportedly coming with new Home products and the iPhone 17 lineup in the Fall.</p>
<p>One obvious benefit of developing chips in-house is energy efficiency. Apple toated this with the introduction of
Apple Silicon what feels like a hundred years ago, and this week with its first-ever 5G modem, which gives the
iPhone 16e nearly
20% better battery life over the flagship iPhone 16. While improved battery life is certainly appealing, there are less obvious but more significant benefits of Apple having end-to-end control over both the software and hardware components.</p>

Security Bite, where I share insights on data privacy, vulnerabilities, or emerging threats within Apple’s vast ecosystem of over 2 billion active devices each week.</p>
