Exemple: How does Apple guarantee that the iOS source code will not be discovered by an adversary?

Is there any type of different encryption for this case?

    They use a lock on the door to where it’s stored.

    This mechanism blocks people from discovering their source code.

    Also the source is split into subsystems - very few at apple will have access to the full iOS code base at any time

      Kinda true, some places develop on machines that don’t have Internet access, air gap between the sensitive data and an outward facing network
