Apple: Privacy vs. Safety? Case Solution
This is just an excerpt. This case is about LEADERSHIP & MANAGING PEOPLE
PUBLICATION DATE: March 28, 2016
The iPhone 6S, in the middle of an increased issue for privacy following the 2013 discovery of private U.S. security programs, used a default file encryption system that avoided both Apple and federal government authorities from accessing information saved on the gadget. Law enforcement authorities cautioned that the file encryption prevented examinations for criminal cases and worldwide violence and called on Apple to develop a backdoor, a method to bypass the file encryption. In 2016, a federal judge bought Apple to offer technical support to open the iPhone utilized by a terrorist who, in addition to his partner, eliminated 14 individuals in San Bernardino, California. Apple chose not to adhere to the order and asked the federal government to withdraw its need. As the lawsuit unfolded, Cook considered his obligations to the United States federal government in addition to Apple's investors, consumers, and staff members.
