What sort of safeguards did you use to make sure the applications will
be secure?
A: This is a big concern, Jobs says. "We've tried to strike a really
good path here. On one side, you've got a closed device like the iPhone,
and on the other side, you've got a Windows PC, where people spend a lot
of time just getting it up to speed." Apple has done that through a
developer registration program, which is mandatory. Apple is using the
electronic-certificate method, in which developers can be tracked when
they release an application. If it's a malicious one, Apple can "shut
off the spigot," if need be, turning off the App Store.
