LockDown Mode

Why would you use LockDown Mode? What are/is the specific criteria for the LockDown Mode to take place? I have been obscurely hacked I believe via “family” usage, via Cloud usage, “Remote Desk” usage, Book Usage. . .I only use just a few Apps but yet there is usage on MANY apps that I have NEVER activated AND there are down loaded Apps that I have never down loaded and are NOT on my IPAD? When I bring it to an Apple Specialist/Representative they fluff it off and reassure me that the IPAD is the MOST SECURE DEVICE EVER!??? I just don not know. . . .

This is completely answered by the first paragraph under “What is Lockdown Mode?” In the article linked above.

Examples of folks who might need this are government agents performing sensitive tasks.
