What is Jailbreaking?
Definition:
Jailbreak - Jailbreaking is the name given to the process used to modify the operating system running on an iPhone, iPod touch, or iPad to allow the user greater control over their device, including the ability to remove Apple-imposed restrictions and install apps obtained and other content through means other than the official App Store (among the most prevalent of these alternative sources is Cydia).
Jailbreak Security :
While the upside of jailbreaking is more control over what is installed on a device, and that it sometimes allows users to do things Apple doesn't approve of (such as, creating ringtones before the feature was available in iTunes), it can also cause problems, including data corruption and allowing hackers and criminals to install malicious code on jailbroken devices.Apple does not support devices that have been damaged due to jailbreaking and may consider them out of warranty.
