</font><br>
<font size="2" face="sans-serif">Reasons for Update:</font><br>
<br>
<font size="2" face="sans-serif">An exploit has been identified in iOS 7 allowing access to some portions of the OS while devices are locked. This exploit revolves around an issue with the Control Center that is accessible from the iOS lock screen. This update creates two related methods to disable the Control Center allowing iOS 7 devices to remain secure when using Mobile Device Management for IBM Endpoint Manager. Either method will block the exploit until an iOS patch is released.</font><br>

Actions to Take: <br>

<ul style="padding-left: 18pt"><font size="2" face="Symbol">· </font><font size="2" face="sans-serif">The Mobile Device Management Site will update automatically. It can also be gathered manually if desired.</font><br>
<font size="2" face="Symbol">· </font><font size="2" face="sans-serif">If iOS 7 devices are part of your deployment, disable the Control Center using one of the methods described, to ensure device security.</font></ul>
