Apple waxay xoojisay nidaamka 'Full Disk Access' ee macOS ka dib khataraha cusub ee AI-ga
Apple waxay sheegtay inay ku xoojin doonto nidaamka 'Full Disk Access' ee macOS, iyadoo sheegtay in khataraha cusub ee ku yimid AI agents ay u baahan yihiin tallaabooyin dheeraad ah si loo ilaaliyo amniga macaamiisha.
Sababta Apple ay ku xoojisay nidaamka
Apple waxay sheegtay in qaar ka mid ah horumarayaasha ay isticmaalaan nidaamka 'Full Disk Access' si ay uga faa'iideystaan waxyaabo ku habboon macaamiisha, taas oo u horseedday in la xoojiyo nidaamka. Tani waxay ku timid markii la ogaaday in AI agents ay ku kordhiyeen khataraha nidaamka.
Nidaamkan waxaa loo sameeyay inuu ogolaado in la sameeyo backup-ka, laakiin AI agents waxay ku kordhiyeen khataraha nidaamka. Apple waxay sheegtay inay u baahan tahay in la xoojiyo nidaamka si loo ilaaliyo amniga macaamiisha.

Apple has announced new restrictions on the Full Disk Access setting in macOS, citing growing security threats posed by increasingly autonomous AI agents that can read private files and messages without explicit user consent.
Catalyst: AI Agent Incidents Spark Concern
The decision follows a series of high-profile incidents involving desktop AI applications. Inc. columnist Jason Aten reported that Meta's Muse app on Mac accessed the content of his private messages, even though he claimed he had not granted the AI agent permission. Meta disputed the claim, but the incident raised serious questions about the trust users place in desktop-based AI systems.
Separately, a Wired report cited that a flaw in ChatGPT's Mac app could have allowed hackers to access sensitive data stored on users' computers. These events have brought the security implications of granting broad system access to AI agents into sharp focus.
Apple's Response and New Safeguards
In a new blog post aimed at developers, Apple stated: 'Some developers are using Full Disk Access in ways that could put users at risk, exposing everything on their systems…without users' full knowledge and understanding.' The company emphasized that addressing these risks is critical as AI agents become more capable and autonomous.
Apple said it will introduce new controls to ensure that users who genuinely wish to grant an app this extraordinary level of access can do so only with very explicit user action. The goal is to make sure users clearly understand the risks before granting such access, enabling them to make informed decisions about their data and privacy.
What Full Disk Access Means for Users
The Full Disk Access setting gives an app permission to access files, mail, messages, and even browsing history on a Mac. While originally designed to allow backups to function properly, AI agents have expanded the risks associated with this level of access substantially.
Apple did not respond to TechCrunch's inquiry about the feature change. The company's move signals a broader industry reckoning with the security challenges posed by AI agents that require deep system access to operate effectively.
