You\u2019re about to perform a sensitive action, such as making a payment, changing your password, or sharing your account details. Impersonation Risk Detection steps in to analyze your Apple account and the information on your device to look for signs of a scam.<\/p>\n<p>Based on the results, Apple will send one of the following three risk levels to the app:<\/p>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Unknown<\/strong>: This means that no suspicious activity was detected, but it doesn\u2019t confirm that the action you\u2019re about to take is safe.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Medium<\/strong>: This indicates that some signs of suspicious activity were detected.<\/li>\n<li><strong>High<\/strong>: This means that significant signs of suspicious activity were detected.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The app then decides what to do next. If a high level of suspicious activity is found, the app could ask you to verify your identify, show a warning, or delay your action before it gets you into trouble. The app makes this determination, not Apple.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Also: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.zdnet.com\/tech\/iphone-18-pro-top-5-features\/\">I\u2019ve used my iPhone 18 Pro for a week \u2013 these 5 features make the upgrade worth it<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Apple will analyze certain information related to an interaction to generate the risk level, but it never receives the data itself. The company doesn\u2019t analyze your content in such apps as Mail, Messages, and Photos. But Apple does learn the type of action you attempted when an app requests a risk assessment. Supported apps receive only the risk level and not the data used to create it.<\/p>\n<p>Impersonation Risk Detection is turned off by default because a supported app requires a certain level of access to your actions and activities.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to enable Impersonation Risk Detection<\/h2>\n<p>To enable the setting in iOS 27 or iPadOS 27, go to Settings and select Privacy &amp; Security. Swipe toward the bottom of the screen and tap the setting for Impersonation Risk Detection. At the next screen, turn on the switch for \u201cShare with App Developers.\u201d After turning this setting on, you may have to wait 24 hours for it to take effect.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Also: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.zdnet.com\/article\/mobile-phishing-is-a-bigger-threat-than-email-now\/\">Mobile phishing is a bigger threat than email now \u2013 how to stay protected<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Any apps that participate in Impersonation Risk Detection will appear on the same screen, so you can always check them periodically for recent activity. You\u2019ll see which apps asked for a risk assessment and which actions triggered the request. Here, you can also turn off access for individual apps.<\/p>\n<p>Both built-in and third-party apps <a data-wp-interactive=\"zd\/analytics\" data-wp-on--click=\"actions.trackClick\" data-zd-otc=\"1\" data-zd-track-action-outcome=\"outbound_click\" data-zd-track-event=\"select_item,view_item\" data-zd-track-item-category=\"MANUAL-OFFER-NO-PRODUCT-CATALOG-ENTRY\" data-zd-track-item-list-index=\"null\" data-zd-track-item-name=\"https:\/\/support.apple.com\/guide\/iphone\/use-impersonation-risk-detection-je2kvy9nls19\/ios\" data-zd-track-location-id=\"BODY\" data-zd-track-module=\"LINK\" data-zd-track-outbound-url=\"https:\/\/cc.zdnet.com\/v1\/otc\/00hQi47eqnEWQ6T9d4QLBUc?url=https%3A%2F%2Fsupport.apple.com%2Fguide%2Fiphone%2Fuse-impersonation-risk-detection-je2kvy9nls19%2Fios&amp;u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.zdnet.com%2Ftech%2Fios-27-impersonation-risk-detection-security-feature%2F\" data-zd-track-page-uuid=\"1339634|3\" data-zd-track-raw-outbound-url=\"https:\/\/cc.zdnet.com\/v1\/otc\/00hQi47eqnEWQ6T9d4QLBUc?url=https%3A%2F%2Fsupport.apple.com%2Fguide%2Fiphone%2Fuse-impersonation-risk-detection-je2kvy9nls19%2Fios&amp;u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.zdnet.com%2Ftech%2Fios-27-impersonation-risk-detection-security-feature%2F\" data-zd-track-raw-url=\"https:\/\/support.apple.com\/guide\/iphone\/use-impersonation-risk-detection-je2kvy9nls19\/ios\" rel=\"nofollow noopener sponsored\" href=\"https:\/\/cc.zdnet.com\/v1\/otc\/00hQi47eqnEWQ6T9d4QLBUc?url=https%3A%2F%2Fsupport.apple.com%2Fguide%2Fiphone%2Fuse-impersonation-risk-detection-je2kvy9nls19%2Fios&amp;u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.zdnet.com%2Ftech%2Fios-27-impersonation-risk-detection-security-feature%2F\">can support the feature<\/a>, though Apple didn\u2019t list any specific programs on <a data-wp-interactive=\"zd\/analytics\" data-wp-on--click=\"actions.trackClick\" data-zd-otc=\"1\" data-zd-track-action-outcome=\"outbound_click\" data-zd-track-event=\"select_item,view_item\" data-zd-track-item-category=\"MANUAL-OFFER-NO-PRODUCT-CATALOG-ENTRY\" data-zd-track-item-list-index=\"null\" data-zd-track-item-name=\"https:\/\/support.apple.com\/en-us\/127906\" data-zd-track-location-id=\"BODY\" data-zd-track-module=\"LINK\" data-zd-track-outbound-url=\"https:\/\/cc.zdnet.com\/v1\/otc\/00hQi47eqnEWQ6T9d4QLBUc?url=https%3A%2F%2Fsupport.apple.com%2Fen-us%2F127906&amp;u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.zdnet.com%2Ftech%2Fios-27-impersonation-risk-detection-security-feature%2F\" data-zd-track-page-uuid=\"1339634|3\" data-zd-track-raw-outbound-url=\"https:\/\/cc.zdnet.com\/v1\/otc\/00hQi47eqnEWQ6T9d4QLBUc?url=https%3A%2F%2Fsupport.apple.com%2Fen-us%2F127906&amp;u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.zdnet.com%2Ftech%2Fios-27-impersonation-risk-detection-security-feature%2F\" data-zd-track-raw-url=\"https:\/\/support.apple.com\/en-us\/127906\" rel=\"nofollow noopener sponsored\" href=\"https:\/\/cc.zdnet.com\/v1\/otc\/00hQi47eqnEWQ6T9d4QLBUc?url=https%3A%2F%2Fsupport.apple.com%2Fen-us%2F127906&amp;u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.zdnet.com%2Ftech%2Fios-27-impersonation-risk-detection-security-feature%2F\">its support page<\/a>.
