The iCloud Keychain is secure from outside attack. It uses advanced encryption to keep your data secure, and Apple is open about how it encrypts your data and when (though the code itself is not open source, as we’ll explain below).

No, not really. I read it as “iCloud Keychain is secure from outside attack” but not from an inside threat. The source is closed so nobody can verify Apple doesn’t actually have a backdoor in there.
