You’ve probably read by now about the “You’ve Got (0-click) Mail!” vulnerability on the iOS native mail app. Attackers can use it to leak, modify, and delete corporate email on an iOS device without user interaction, on both the iOS 12 and 13 native mail apps. A fix isn’t expected until the iOS 13.4.5 release.
Apple researched the report and, in a statement, said it posted no immediate risk to user. Still, organizations should take extra caution, as with any vulnerability. Citrix’s mobile productivity apps are constantly updated to ensure mitigation of this type of vulnerability. That’s why we recommend organizations use an enterprise-grade secure e-mail client instead of more common consumer mail clients, along with a mature unified endpoint management solution like Citrix Endpoint Management.
Citrix Endpoint Management can enhance an organization’s security and risk posture as the digital workspace continues to expand.
