This approval comes down to how Apple builds security into its products. New iPhones and iPads rely on Apple silicon with a Secure Enclave that isolates sensitive data, like encryption keys and biometric information. They also use protections such as Face ID, Touch ID, and Memory Integrity Enforcement, which block entire classes of memory-based attacks before they run.

To be clear, NATO has not crowned the iPhone and iPad as its official devices. But it is validating that Apple's everyday hardware meets the bar for classified government use. In other words, the same phone in your pocket is trusted in environments once reserved for bespoke, locked-down hardware. It also reinforces Apple's claims that privacy and security are core decisions.

I figured out there is a second hotsport wifi named "PROjb3e11" that has to have "auto-Join" selected or wireless Carplay will never work. This is a different SSID if you subscribe to AT&T hotspot built into the Mach-E. It took a senior Apple "Genius" to figure this out. Ford tech should be aware of this. You need both a wifi and Bluetooth connection in order for wireless Carplay to work and you will have to manually set the "Auto Join" even after re-pairing the Bluetooth connection.
