> I wonder if anyone here has seen this Security Configuration
> Recommendations for Apple iOS 5 Devices, by the U.S. National Security
> Agency and dated March 2012. I didn't find any reference to it in the
> list archives. A Tweep, M.A. Ho-Kane, just tweeted it. The document is
> not classified and reads that it is designed to help U.S. government
> officials across agencies handle Sensitive But Unclassified information
> on their iPhones. The document seems legitimate to me. And makes sense
> since so many people including U.S. agency officials these days carry
> iPhones or iPads. The document and its recommendations also seems very
> thorough.
