ElcomSoft Phone Breaker 9.15 supports iOS 13 and iPadOS beta, extracts iCloud tokens from macOS

Elcomsoft Phone Breaker 9.15 adds the ability to download iCloud backups created with iPhone and iPad devices running iOS 13 and iPadOS beta. In addition, the tool is now able to extract fully-featured iCloud authentication tokens from macOS computers and use that token on any other computer. The token can be used to authenticate into iCloud without using the login, password and two-factor authentication process.

At the same time, there are quite a few things forensic specialists will need to know about the new iteration of Apple’s mobile operating system. In this article, we’ll be discussing the changes and their meaning for the mobile forensics.

The upcoming release of iOS 13 brings additional security measures that will undoubtedly make physical access even more difficult. While the ability to download iCloud backups has been around for years, the need to supply the user’s login and password followed by two-factor authentication was always a roadblock.

It took us more than a year to figure out a workaround allowing experts to transfer authentication tokens from the user’s computer...

What is Password Recovery and How It Is Different from Password Cracking

Why wasting time recovering passwords instead of just breaking in? Why can we crack some passwords but still have to recover the others? Not all types of protection are equal. There are multiple types of password protection, all having their legitimate use cases. In this article, we’ll explain the differences between the many types of password protection.
