The web went aflame today with headlines like "First iPhone worm discovered", and many other variants. Most of those headlines, however, left out a very important little fact which diminishes the impact of the news considerably: it only affects jailbroken iPhones with SSH installed, and with default root passwords.

Anyone [with half a brain] who has jailbroken their iphone knew this would happen sooner or later. And its not exactly hard to protect yourself.
1. Don't install SSH
2. If you do, switch it off when you don't need it!
3. change the frekin password..
