![]() In fact Apple goes a step further by ensuring that apps are upfront about how they are using your data, so you can be sure that there is no risk that any of your information will be shared with anyone without your knowledge.īut even apps that you don’t install from the Mac App Store will be checked by Apple before you can install them – that’s the purpose of Gatekeeper, which we mentioned above. Every app in Apple’s Mac App Store has been reviewed by Apple, so you can be confident that it will not pose a risk to you. If you want to be really confident about any app you install you would be wise to stick to apps on the Mac App Store. Approaching security updates in this way means Apple can issue them faster without them being part of a wider update. When you restart a Mac any Rapid Security Responses will be instantly applied. Apple’s introducing the feature as an update to macOS Ventura 13.2 (and iOS 16.3). Rapid Security Responses take this a step further and will speed up the delivery of security fixes on iPhone, iPad, and Mac. Your Mac can automatically check for updates and even install security updates without you needing to do anything To make sure you get background updates as soon as they are issued by Apple, make sure that Install Security Responses and System Files is selected in Ventura, or “Install system data files and security updates” in older OSs. You will still need to restart your Mac to install a normal software update update, however some security updates can be pushed to your Mac by Apple and installed as background updates without requiring you to restart. This should mean that the software is downloaded to your Mac when issued by Apple.
