About Apple security updates
The iBOOKS Bookstore and Reading Haven. Apple tends to favour convenience and simplicity. You see this in all of its stores and apps. Things are as well-crafted and simple as possible from one end of the experience to the other. Using the iBooks app, you are able to purchase and read books including audio books all from within the same app. Jul 15, 2016 Firstly, there is no such thing as an iCloud ID, iCloud is a service which you use in conjunction with your Apple ID. Secondly nothing has changed, you can have 10 devices associated with an Apple ID, if you use 3 Apple ID's on one device it will count as one device against each of those 3 Apple ID's, I'm not sure why Apple couldn't explain this to you, it seems fairly straight forward to me.
For our customers' protection, Apple doesn't disclose, discuss, or confirm security issues until an investigation has occurred and patches or releases are available. Recent releases are listed on the Apple security updates page.
For more information about security, see the Apple Product Security page. You can encrypt communications with Apple using the Apple Product Security PGP Key.
Apple security documents reference vulnerabilities by CVE-ID when possible.
