Windows 11’s Phone Link for iOS Allegedly Used for iPhone Owner Surveillance

Mobile security firm Certo Software has reported instances of users being spied upon through Phone Link for iOS. To compromise an individual, an attacker would need physical access to the victim’s iPhone and knowledge of the device’s passcode. By setting up Phone Link on their own Windows PC and establishing a Bluetooth connection with the victim’s iPhone via a QR code scan, the attacker gains access to call history, iMessages, and notification content without the victim’s knowledge.
