Even though the iOS ecosystem is renowned for its security measures, spyware installation on an iPhone can occur through various means. Here are some common ways spyware can find its way onto your device:
• Jailbroken devices that have an outdated or compromised operating system
• Phishing attacks via malicious email, text messages, or social media
• Insecure public Wi-Fi networks
• Malicious apps that install spyware on an iPhone
• Physical access if someone knows your passcode
