Shitty headline. Their concern is that there’s no way for a 3rd party app to disable the mic on iPhones. They’re not worried about iOS being insecure, just that if someone wanted to use one to record sensitive conversations, there’s no way they can stop that happening.
Funnily enough, it’s because of Apple’s approach to security. There’s no API available for 3rd party software to use because if there was, some asshole would find a way to abuse it.

I’m surprised microphone and camera privileges aren’t part of any device management software.

This sounds a lot like security concerns to me.
I didn’t think you understand how the military views security. It is not the same way you or I do.
The issue isn’t with the military, it’s with the clickbaity journalism.
