kSecAttrAccessibleWhenUnlocked

The data in the keychain item can be accessed only while the device is unlocked by the user.

Declaration

let kSecAttrAccessibleWhenUnlocked: CFString

Discussion

This is recommended for items that need to be accessible only while the application is in the foreground. Items with this attribute migrate to a new device when using encrypted backups.

This is the default value for keychain items added without explicitly setting an accessibility constant.
