Of course, Apple retains ownership of the devices, which will be loaned to researchers for a year on a renewable basis. Device holders are not allowed to use the phones for personal use and outside their registered premises.
The new initiative is open to members of the Apple Developer Program with experience in identifying security issues with Apple or other platforms. Also, only researchers based in Australia, Austria, Belgium, Canada, Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, Japan, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, UK, and the U.S. can join the program. Applicants are subject to Apple's review process and device availability is limited for the initial round of application.
