Apple has this thing called lockdown mode. In the help article they state that “to connect your iPhone or iPad to an accessory or another computer, the device needs to be unlocked”
Wonder if this helps against forensic tools. Also wonder why would they not disable USB port for anything besides charging or even go as extreme as disabling it altogether and only allow wireless charging.
Apple devices are generally very resilient to cellebrite methods regardless of lockdown mode. Especially recent ones (11 or newer) with even slightly old iOS versions.
Even when brute force attacks can be loaded onto their phones, they are incredibly slow (like 75 attempts per day) and very unlikely to get a 6 digit code. Lockdown probably helps prevent a brute force from being loaded, but it’s mostly moot currently.
And most recent devices can’t load a brute force client regardless of lockdown.
While most points raised are true the way it's laid out is awful, it's just utter contempt of readers.
And on topic: yes, cellebrite admitted it (thread about that is a nice rrad), but the autocomplete generating the "article" failed to notice that even the unlocked phone doesn't get fully pwned.
GOS continues to deliver what apple promises. Actually privacy and security.

Ew, entirely AI-generated half-assed review.
