Bugs and certain flaws often pop up on iPhones that Apple generally fixes through software updates. However, at times there are certain issues that persist for longer as iOS updates don’t come out too frequently. Apple may have a plan to solve that problem and we explain how it intends to do that with something called Rapid Security Response.
What is Rapid Security Response?
With iOS 16.2 beta version, Apple has been testing the Rapid Security Response feature. We have been using the iOS 16.2 beta and have seen two Rapid Security Response updates arrive. “This Rapid Security Response provides security fixes and is recommended for all users,” is the message you see. Apple had also explained what the feature is, “in a future update to iOS 16, iPadOS 16.1 and macOS 13, Apple will add a mechanism for shipping security fixes to users more frequently. These responses are included in any ensuing minor update (not upgrade) and, on a Mac, updated content appears on the Preboot volume.”
When was the Rapid Security Response feature tested?
Earlier this month, Apple rolled out the first ‘test’ feature for Rapid Security Response. After installing the update, users got a message which said that the update was just a test and no security flaws or bugs were actually fixed. Two days ago, Apple released another Rapid Security Response update, which we downloaded and it apparently did fix some issues as there was no other message from Apple regarding this update.
How can users download the Rapid Security Response update?
The update comes exactly where an iOS update lands. Go to Settings > General > Software update. Apple also says that Rapid Security Responses involve the operating system require the device to restart. Rapid Security Responses also requires users to quit and close the Safari app, it is open on the device.
