    When logging into my apple account through iTunes on my mac, is on a secure connection? or are there vulnerabilities where phishing can happen on the iTunes store login?

    Phishing can happen regardless of how secure the connection might be in terms of encryption or authentication protocols.

    Ok, but is it at least a bit safer than logging in from say safari?
