The Silent Threat: New DarkSword Spyware Can Infiltrate Your iPhone Without a Single Click

Security researchers have identified a dangerous new form of spyware named DarkSword that specifically targets the iOS ecosystem. Unlike traditional malware that requires a user to click a suspicious link or download a malicious file, this exploit utilizes a zero-click mechanism, allowing it to bypass standard security hurdles and install itself silently. With millions of devices potentially exposed, the discovery highlights an evolving landscape of cyber threats where simply owning a device can make a user a target regardless of their digital hygiene or browsing habits.
