Why would apple implement a new weaker scheme in parallel to the existing old? Are the designers of the otherwise so secure enclave blundering? Or is this done on purpose?! (Hard to believe they would believe they would get away with it, so... amateur hour accident?)
Is this Apple's Bitlocker Elephant Diffuser?
Can I have some extrabacon with that?!
- pervycreeper 10y agoI think your second explanation goes a long way to explaining the whole San Bernadino iPhone 5c dog-and-pony-show that Apple put on early this year.
- bsamuels 10y agoyes, the company that went out of their way to fab their own soc JUST for encryption/improving device security purposefully degraded their password backup scheme to allow the government to break into their devices i dont even like apple but come on, the hyperbole can only go so far
- JohnStrange 10y agoYou do know that it was possible to get the FileVault password for other users with a simple grep command up until OS X 10.7, don't you?
- tptacek 10y agoYou do know that if you can run commands on someone's machine, FileVault has already failed to protect them, right?
- jonathanstrange 10y agoProbably just a secret deal with the DHS. Don't worry about it.
