Well, the Secure Enclave is in every device with a TouchID, so that's the iPhone 5S and newer.

That way the 7 hardware has a very secure way to do this where as since it wasn't planned in the older phones it might not be secure if they tried to provide access from user software. Maybe the NFC reader is attached to a different chip in the 7 that makes this easier/secure than in the older phones.
