JAKARTA - On Monday, May 1, Apple unveiled its first Rapid Security Responses update aimed at improving security vulnerabilities that are under active exploitation or pose a significant risk to its customers.

Based on records found by MacRumors, these updates will provide important security improvements among software updates. For example, improvements to Safari's web browser, WebKit framework stacks, or other important system libraries.

"They can also be used to reduce some security issues more quickly, such as issues that may have been exploited or reported to be 'in the wild'," Apple said in a note on its official website.

This new Rapid Security Responses is sent only for the latest versions of iOS, iPadOS, and macOS starting with iOS 16.4.1, iPadOS 16.4.1, and macOS 13.3.1.

By default, Rapid Security Responses will be implemented automatically on your device. However, to make sure it is active on your device, restart your device and check device settings, in the following way:

On iPhone or iPad

Open Settings > General > Software Update > Automatic Update, then make sure "Security Response & System Files" is enabled.

On Mac

Select the Apple menu > System Settings. Click General at the sidebar, then click Software Update on the right. Click the Show Details button next to Automatic Update, then make sure "Instal Security Response and System Files" are enabled.

When Rapid Security Responses have been implemented, a letter will appear after the software version number, as in this example: macOS 13.3.1 (a).

"If you choose to disable this setting or not implement Rapid Security Responses when available, your device will receive relevant fixes or mitigation when included in the next software update," Apple concluded.
