"“Apple led the way with secure coprocessors in phones, with fingerprint sensors, with encrypted messages. If you can attack Apple, then you can probably attack anyone.”" They really didn't. There were cryptophones, such as Cryptophone, doing secure messaging and stuff before Apple. Julian Assange used one IIRC. High-assurance security did stuff like Sectera Edge with some side-channel shielding, too. Then, there were companies like OK Labs building minimal, trusted, computing bases into phones with stuff like Android sandboxed in user-mode. Sensitive stuff ran outside. Then, Apple got into the game. They could still copy some of these techniques for improved security on top of what they're doing already. https://www.cryptophone.de/ https://www.cryptophone.de/ https://web.archive.org/web/20080408152145/http://www.gdc4s.com/content/detail.cfm?item=32640fd9-0213-4330-a742-55106fbaff32 https://web.archive.org/web/20080408152145/http://www.gdc4s.... https://web.archive.org/web/20110219075132/http://www.ok-labs.com/solutions/secure-hypercell-technology https://web.archive.org/web/20110219075132/http://www.ok-lab...
