ios - Apple App Transport Security (ATS) for Enterprise Application -


i developing enterprise application. far every thing working fine in simulator when deploy on physical devices crashes. crash happening because app connecting web services via "http" instead of "https".

i have added ats exceptions in info.plist file. need know enterprise application continue work after 2016 (apple's deadline) http?

application hosted in our own servers, , apple doesn't review enterprise applications.

update 1 need know enterprise application continue work after 2016 ats exceptions or not ?

any apple app store submissions starting 2017, still can request app transport security (ats) exception reviewed apple. need highly restrict exception list , not allowed blanket arbitrary http loads. reviewers can still reject submission , request additional information.

i.e. apps requesting government noaa images on non-secure channel might allowed since noaa not support https/ssl weather radar images.... again, apple reviewers...

wkwebview, uiwebview, webview:

nsallowsarbitraryloadsinwebcontent lets have strict ats dictionary still load arbitrary content in web view (wkwebview, uiwebview, webview)

non-secure local networking:

nsallowslocalnetworking allows loading of local resources without disabling ats rest of app

media content encrypted:

nsallowsarbitraryloadsinmedia disables ats restrictions media app loads using av foundation framework. employ key loading media encrypted, such files protected fairplay or secure hls, , not contain personalized information.

enterprise applications:

these not apple reviewed, disabling ats allowed until possible future version of ios disallow non-secure traffic, but far best practice

  • enterprise data accessed non-securely?

if enterprise app requires non-secure local network-based resources, use new nsallowslocalnetworking exception instead.

if enterprise app requires non-secure enterprise resources obtained on public internet, might have security issues beyond scope of ios app transport security issues.
