Or, more likely the CIA or NSA."Professional hackers" = FBI
Exactly. If you have a four digit passcode, you haven't secured your phone.But I'm curious what the hackers would do with my iPhone 6S Plus with alphanumeric passcode of unknown length with 10 attempt wipe turned on. Good luck!
I know it's GOP's dream, heck, Fox News talks about this everyday; but while using a personal server is frowned upon, it's not illegal.FBI hacked the iPhone but they still can't decide what to do about Hillary's email server...
Looks like there are multiple ways to hack iPhone. Not exactly a secure device, Tim.
Well, in all fairness, the transfer of classified information and subsequent dissemination of said information is illegal - in fact a felony. Frankly it doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out that, as Secretary of State you 1) receive and send highly classified information on occasion and 2) a personal email server sitting in your closet likely isn't as secure as systems that are designed for handling this kind of information. She knew what she was doing was a problem - she just didn't care. I suspect that the focus of the FBI investigation isn't so much about the server itself as it is about how highly classified information ended up on the server. Someone that emails it to her is one thing, but a lot of the classified information is restricted to systems that don't go through regular Internet channels and standard email protocols. These highly classified documents have dedicated terminals and supporting systems. I believe the FBI's concern is how information that should be restricted to those systems ended up on her server. Hence their discussions with her private IT guy (that also worked for the State Department) that set up her server and supported her regular IT needs.I know it's GOP's dream, heck, Fox News talks about this everyday; but while using a personal server is frowned upon, it's not illegal.
I wish the GOP focused their energy on nominating a proper candidate rather than go after her emails and telling FBI what they should and shouldn't do
If you have a four digit passcode, you're not too concerned about security (or just really ignorant).Looks like there are multiple ways to hack iPhone. Not exactly a secure device, Tim.
There never has been a 100% secure device out there. There have always been multiple ways to hack the iPhone.
Exactly what Apple didn't want to happen happened.
Thats not Scofield though. Thats RolandDo you think it was that device Michael Schofield used in season 4 of Prisonbreak?

If it runs code, it's insecure. I wish people would stop believing Apple's marketing machine.

I would say this sums it up fairly well.Which is why security updates. It's not rocket science. Close, though.
You might like to compare, say, overall Android security in the field with iOS in the field. Nobody's perfect, but some are more imperfect than others.

In theory, you're right. In practice, not so much. Security only needs to be good enough to make cracking it impractical, or at the very worst, not worth the considerable effort to break it. With encryption, we've been there for quite a bit.
There's a reason so much effort is made by would-be criminals to do social engineering attacks versus directly attacking encryption and other device-level security.

It certainly is if you're passing on classified information through the emails on it. Which has already been shown to have happened.
Apple doesn't want jailbreaking to happen, since it disrupts their perfect vision of total control.LoL really? what makes you think this?
Nothing is 100% secure.... if it were we wouldn't have jailbreaking of iPhone/pad/ect.

Damage control story. FUD, psy-ops / counter ops misinformation.
I thought the shooter's personal phones were smashed anyway? Probably got info from the phone company...Exactly. They didn't get anything from the phone. There was never anything on the phone. They got any info they needed from their personal phones. This was a work phone with nothing on it. They simply didn't want the Court to rule against their demand to gut encryption.
Didn't you get the message that there is a dangerous computer virus hidden on the phone that endangers all of America? No way can they publicise anything from the phone without risking your freedom and money.
