Hello everybody
I want to tell you about this seemingly useful feature of iCloud called
Keychain. This allows you to securely upload your confidential data such
as passwords and credit cards to the cloud. For the paranoid let me
assure you that the information presented during setup assures that all
data is encrypted and cannot be read by Apple. Alternatively you can
simply not use it grin. Also during setup you are required to set a
security code and phone number if you have one so you can receive a
message when approving new devices for Keychain. Once set up and you
have autofill enabled in Safari any of the above data will be uploaded
to iCloud with your concent. You can also view the saved passwords and
delete any or all at your leisure. After all that I now have Keychain
setup on both my iPhone 4s running 7.1.1 and late 2011 Macbook Pro
running 10.9.3 Mavericks set up for Keychain. I don't know why I refused
to use it at first now since the process from the word go is heavily
involved before it can be used.
