End-to-end encryption has been confirmed for Safari, now protecting your iCloud Internet bookmark data.

Apple's iCloud Security Overview recently got some new entries, including information about Safari's web browser. According to the webpage, end-to-end encryption now covers your bookmarks, in addition to your history and tabs, as a way to protect both your security and privacy.

As SoleSolace points out on Reddit, it seems to coincide with the release of iOS 15, but no specific iOS version is mentioned. This raises the question of whether this will affect bookmark syncing between systems.

This means that all your important bookmarks for personal and private web use, such as banks, email, etc., are protected in iCloud. You don’t have to worry about your account credentials or anything like that being viewed or stolen. The only way someone could gain access is by knowing your Apple ID or directly accessing your device, which requires a passcode or Face/TouchID. However, this only protects your information in iCloud. If a website or service itself is compromised, your information could still be at risk.
