4 min read

The Apple App Transport Security (ATS) policy is a security feature implemented in iOS, macOS, and tvOS to ensure that app communications are secure by default. It enforces best practices in the secure connections between an app and its back end servers. The ATS policy requires apps to use secure network connections by default, such as HTTPS, and it restricts the use of insecure communication protocols and ciphers. ATS also helps protect user privacy by preventing non-secure data transfer and blocking connections to untrusted servers. Overall, it aims to enhance the security and privacy of app communications on Apple devices.
