- From his iPhone:
Install MobileTerminal from Cydia and type the same commands as on mac below.

- Mac since:
Launch Terminal (in Applications> Utilities) and type the following commands:

ssh root @ ip-of-your-iPhone (press)
Prompted for the password of your iPhone, type: alpine (validate)
Then type: passwd (validate)
Now type twice the new password you want, it does not appear on the screen is normal.
Your new password is activated.

You are now protected.
