https://9to5mac.com/2022/04/29/cellebrite-iphone-cracking/ Cellebrite iPhone cracking kit allows the company’s clients to access virtually all of the private data stored on a phone – in some cases, even if the phone is locked. But the exact capabilities depend on both the model of the iPhone and the version of iOS it is running. We managed to get access to the user documentation for a recent version of the kit to see what it can do …

https://www.forensicfocus.com/news/huawei-devices-decryption-and-extraction-in-oxygen-forensic-detective/ "For devices with security updates before July 2021 only online brute-force is possible, as one of the keys can be obtained only when the password is known. The password is tried on the connected smartphone at the stage of hardware key extraction by the data extraction module, and the testing speed is about 3 passwords per second. This significantly slows down the password brute-force process, since it would take almost 8 months to find a 6-digit password." You've got to wonder how much of the "security concerns" Western governments have about Huawei …

https://www.forensicfocus.com/webinars/how-viable-is-password-cracking-in-digital-forensic-investigations/ People should stop thinking about passwords and start thinking in terms of multi word passphrases. Diceware is an excellent method to generate long passphrases that are truly random and have no predictable patterns that would make them easier to crack.

https://www.forensicfocus.com/webinars/chip-chop-smashing-the-mobile-phone-security-chip-for-fun-and-digital-forensics/ Interesting attack, but ultimately still hinges on being able to brute force the users passcode. If this fails (passcode too long?) then acquisition won't be possible. But how relevant is this in policing today? Most people I know don't switch off their phones ever, some don't even use an pin, most will use a 4-6 digit code which is easily brute forced. And for those with longer passcodes there's RIPA I guess. How often does this issue come up?

https://www.forensicfocus.com/case-studies/how-detego-helped-airport-based-counterterrorism-units-speed-up-investigations-with-rapid-data-extraction-and-triage-tools/ The airport has Counter Terrorism Officers operating permanently as part of the wider Counter Terrorism Border Policing Group.

https://www.vice.com/en/article/93b3ay/fbi-backdoor-anom-phones-gps-data Anom, an encrypted phone company marketed to criminals which the FBI secretly took over, surreptitiously recorded every message sent by the phones’ users. But the truly global undercover operation had another secret: the phones also collected users' precise GPS location and transferred that information to authorities, according to multiple documents reviewed by Motherboard. I've long felt that the "encrypted phone" market is just snake oil. The marketing is great and there's lots of promises but they are usually low on detail and transparency about how their systems work. If you can'…
