Apple and Corellium Finally Settle 4-Year Court Battle

Apple and cybersecurity startup Corellium have settled a four-year copyright lawsuit. The suit, filed in 2019, alleged that Corellium had illegally replicated iOS by creating software that allowed virtual versions of iPhones to be probed by security researchers and app developers. Apple claimed that Corellium had breached the Digital Millennium Copyright Act. The case had several twists, including Apple's attempt to buy Corellium for $23 million and the subpoenaing of defense giant L3Harris. While Apple dropped some allegations and had the original copyright claim thrown out, it appealed in 2021 but was told it didn't have a case. The settlement terms have not been disclosed.

Apple's iOS Simulator Copyright Case Remains Unresolved.

The US Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit ruled that Corellium's CORSEC simulator, which allows security researchers to identify flaws in the iPhone's iOS operating system, is protected by copyright law's fair use doctrine. Apple had sued Corellium in 2019, arguing that its software was a "wholesale copying and reproduction" of iOS and served as a market substitute for its own security research products. The appeals court largely sided with Corellium, stating that its copying of iOS code was transformative and furthered scientific progress. The case has been closely watched by security researchers and digital rights groups.

Apple's copyright claims over iOS simulation remain dismissed in the US.

Apple has lost its appeal against security startup Corellium, which it accused of infringing its copyrights by simulating its iOS operating system to help researchers find security flaws in Apple devices. The 11th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals ruled that Corellium lawfully recreated Apple's system under the U.S. copyright doctrine of fair use, furthering scientific progress by aiding important security research. The court rejected Apple's arguments that Corellium simply repackaged iOS in a different format for profit, harming Apple's market for its operating system and its security-research programs.

Corellium wins legal battle to offer iOS virtual machines.

A US court has ruled that Corellium is not infringing any copyrights with its iOS virtual machines, which are used for security research purposes. The court stated that Corellium's products "furthers scientific progress" and that iOS is a "functional operating software that falls outside copyright's core." This ruling allows Corellium to continue providing iOS virtual machines to its customers, and it may set a precedent for developers to emulate iOS on other platforms without being sued.
