As part of today’s announcements at WWDC 2022, Apple briefly mentioned a new addition to its security tools called rapid security response. Currently, iOS and MacOS users get their security updates rolled in with full system patches, usually with.1 or.0.1 version numbers.

Apple says its rapid security response updates include important security improvements that’can be applied automatically between standard software updates’. It says that’some updates may only take effect once you restart your iPhone’.
