What device level do you speak of? How does one get medical records onto the device? Where does one backup the said data off the device, as is normal with all devices today.
I repeat - your argument is based on cherry picking Apple propaganda. It's like saying "emails stored on Apple devices are encrypted". Which they most certainly are, but if subject to Chinese law, even if Apple's email service were end-to-end encrypted, they'd have to provide encryption keys to the government. So all this "email is encrypted on the iPhone" is marketing fluff
- saagarjha 9y ago> What device level do you speak of? iOS devices literally have a hardware security module called the SEP that controls access to sensitive information such as Health data. > Where does one backup the said data off the device, as is normal with all devices today. You set a password for this data when you back it up, and the data is encrypted with that password.
- lederhosen 9y agoBut we do not know if it works, do we? Previous implementations have been crippled in ways that suggests that it could have been done on purpose. Limit the password to few characters and permit unlimited tries on the "secure" hardware. Data recovered in subseconds. I suggest it was either done on purpose or they are incredibly incompetent. Which alternative do you believe to be true? Either way, why trust them?
