Your iPhone is encrypted even on a 2g

And anything working with 0s and 1s can be encrypted

actually there's a better link

Basically your average secure boot hw
"The Secure Enclave contains its own UID and hardware AES engine. The passcode verification process takes place here, separated from the rest of the system. The Secure Enclave also handles Touch ID fingerprint processing and matching, and authorizing payments for Apple Pay."

And in the end some isreali company did provide the FBI a tool to bypass it lol

haven't heard of that and i doubt it

unless you're talking about that iphone in san bernardino, which isn't relevant

Apple is advertising a glorified micro processor with some low level crap but still gets beaned

And now they are putting encrypting smc in all their products

huh hadn't heard about that. Not sure if its true tho

Cellejews is the only people I can trust about apples actual security

I think there was another isreali company that released a brute forcer and bypass tool for the iPhone at a small cost of $40k

Let's not forget that it was possible to skip the lock screen for a while

Good times <:boomer:480046032546168863>

Truley greatest ally

I still have to agree that apple cares more about security for their customers than huashit and jewgle

>Basically your average secure boot hw
well from what i understand the sec artchitecture is also different

They already fixed most of the issues with the newer socs but older devices are fugged

the OS uses hw backed file based encryption, which lets encryption work while the device is on but locked

which is pretty significant

but i think its conditional on application support

i guess you could achieve something similar with just using gpg

So if the lockscreen is bypassed without the use of a passcode it starts to decrypt?

i would assume not

<:thvnk:332928260004642827>

i mean im no security researcher, but i assume there's smart people working on it who would take an assumption like that into a account

its a legitimate question, but it seems rather obv

I am not an expert either but according to security researched it is as safe at it can get

Samsung Knox had the same issue a while back

@pie the innocent hey I mean good job apple and other companies for decent and good security measures
You certainly don't want to be the next billion dollar company who stores their passcodes in a .txt file

https://blog.cryptographyengineering.com/2016/11/24/android-n-encryption/ might be an interesting read

but its a bit old (2016)

That's a great article

Very good security
