The Chinese-based mobile hacker group, Pangu, has recently demonstrated the successful hacking of the Apple's newly released iOS 10. This is a great feat for the group as it opens the possibility of having a working iOS 10 jailbreak tool once the iOS 10 is formally released by Apple worldwide. However, many Apple enthusiasts and spectators are now expecting that the mobile hackers are now on their way to successfully jailbreak the older iOS 9.3.2 system. It can be recalled that the working jailbreak tools for the iOS 9.3.2 and 9.3.2 would become available soon, although no hacker groups were successful in developing such tool.

According to a report from iTech Post, Pangu was able to present to the public how their team broke the iOS 10's security measures, making it possible for them to run the Cydia application manager on iOS 10. Unfortunately for those who were expecting that Pangu would release a working iOS 10 jailbreaking software during the event, the group did not offer any tools. Nevertheless, this shows that the iOS 10 can be broken down and be personalized according to the users' liking, contrary to what happened in the previous operating system versions of Apple. Specifically, the iOS 9.3.2 and iOS 9.3.3 remains "unbreakable" as of the moment.

Aside from the iOS 10 demo, Pangu also talked about the security settings of the iOS 9.3.2 at the Mobile Security Conference (MOSEC) held last July 1. They pointed out during their presentation that the Apple devices actually lacks some security features that run the iOS 9.3.2. With this presentation, many have speculated that Pangu may be on their way to developing and finally releasing a working jailbreak tool for the iOS 9.3.2. Many rumors had surfaced that Pangu and other mobile hacking groups were successful to craft such tool, but Apple may have become successful to keep their latest iOS systems "jailbreak-free."

In spite of the growing speculations of an impending iOS 9.3.2 jailbreak happening soon, the online publication also noted that Pangu did not confirm the tool's development for the mean time.
