"Apple has amped up iCloud&amp;#039;s security, bringing it in line with rival services. The Cupertino firm has introduced two-step authentication to the cloud platform in response to a spate of breaches last year.   The move sees Apple follow in the footsteps with other technology companies such as Google and social network Facebook. Second-step authentication will only kick in when the user attempts to access their iCloud account from a new device or an unrecognised IP address. Apple will no longer be able to reset users&amp;#039; accounts for them should they forget their password, a feature which can be exploited by hackers who have personal information on the user. iCloud users can set up two-step authentication via the Apple ID website.
