Who leads security at Apple
Re-checked: Apple's official leadership page (apple.com/leadership) still lists executive and board members but includes no CISO or equivalent top security title. Apple is widely noted to not publicly designate a CISO at the corporate level. No reputable source names a current CISO for Apple Inc.
What Apple tells the SEC
Its fiscal 2025 Form 10-K, filed October 31, 2025, carries an Item 1C cybersecurity disclosure that describes a Head of Corporate Information Security, with oversight by the Audit and Finance Committee. Read the section verbatim or the filing on sec.gov. A filing describes governance as of its date, not today's seat.
