Company Offers Tool To Break iPhone Encryption

ElcomSoft says it has developed the first ever commercially available password and encryption cracking tool. The toolkit will give its users the ability to decrypt encrypted file system images on an iOS device. The company has made a phone password breaker public and says the complete toolkit, with the decryption tool included, will be marketed to law enforcement and intelligence agencies. The method deployed by Elcomsoft is similar to one described in a research paper released in February, according to security expert Charlie Miller. Miller says individuals worried about having their mobile device broken into should use long complicated passwords.
