苹果拟推送实时提醒应对iCloud攻击

Apple plans to do more to warn customers when hackers try to access their iCloud accounts, the company said on Thursday, as it attempts to close security loopholes in the aftermath of a recent attack on celebrities such as Jennifer Lawrence.

在不久前詹妮弗•劳伦斯(Jennifer Lawrence)等名人遭遇网络攻击后，苹果(Apple)试图堵上iCloud的安全漏洞。周四该公司表示，计划采取更多措施，在黑客试图访问用户iCloud账户时警告用户。

Apple is scrambling to bring to a close an embarrassing episode for the company ahead of next Tuesday’s press event at which it is expected to launch new iPhones and a new wearable device.

目前，苹果公司正努力结束这一令人尴尬的风波，以便迎接下周二的产品推介活动。在下周二的活动中，苹果预计会推出新款iPhone和一款新的可穿戴设备。

Private photographs of stars in various states of undress flooded internet forums such as 4Chan and Reddit last weekend, prompting an outcry over the apparent ease with which hackers were able to break into iPhone accounts.

上周末，多位明星的各种裸体私密照片大量充斥着4Chan和Reddit等互联网论坛，对于黑客似乎能轻而易举地攻破iPhone账户，人们表示强烈抗议。

In an interview with the Wall Street Journal published on Thursday evening, Tim Cook, Apple’s chief executive, said new notifications about attempted password resets or logins would begin in two weeks. Apple will issue an update to its iPhone operating system, iOS 8, at around the same time.

在周四晚上《华尔街日报》(WSJ)发布的采访中，苹果首席执行官蒂姆•库克(Tim Cook)表示，苹果将在两周内开始引入新的提示机制，就密码重置或账户登录等企图发出提醒。在大约同一时间，苹果将发布针对其iPhone操作系统iOS 8的更新。

Emails are already sent when a password is reset, but customers will soon also receive a push notification to their iPhone or iPad when an iCloud backup is restored, or their account is used to log into an account on a new device.

眼下，密码重置时系统已经会发送电子邮件。不过，要不了多久，在用户iCloud备份被还原，或用户账号被人在新设备上用于登录时，用户将在iPhone或iPad上收到推送通知。目前，当用户的iMessage或FaceTime账户注册新的设备时，系统会发出类似通知。
