Phone encryption system is a joke Expert finds that it is not difficult to break While phone encryption is considered a hot topic by lawmakers who are worried it is being used by criminals and terrorists, Matthew Green, a cryptographer and professor at Johns Hopkins University has been showing that it is not really as safe as all that. In a series of tweets Green said that his students Max and Tushar Jois spent most of the summer going through every piece of public documentation, forensics report, and legal document we could find to figure out how police were "breaking phone encryption". It was sparked by a claim that coppers could not break Apple’s Secure Enclave Processor, which would make it awfully hard to crack the password of a locked, recent iPhone. The pair found that authorities do not need to break phone encryption in most cases, because modern phone encryption sort of sucks. https://fudzilla.com/news/mobile/521...stem-is-a-joke |
