The complaint alleges that Aud, while working as a highly paid engineer since 2016, provided journalists with information about future Apple products and strategies, including the iPhone Journal App and Apple Vision Pro. Aud used his work iPhone to leak information through encrypted messages, exchanging about 1,400 messages with one of the journalists.
More about Od: He was hired by Apple after graduating from college in 2016 and is accused of leaking confidential information to journalists for several years. As a result of his actions, Od tried to “destroy” certain products and features, which Apple considers to be malicious activity.
Apple has suffered significant damages as a result of Od’s actions, including financial loss and breach of privacy, and is now seeking compensation in court. The lawsuit opens a debate about the security of corporate information and the importance of protecting it.
