However, logical mostly gives you the same data you can get via the iTunes app: an iTunes-style backup (that may or may not be encrypted), media files and some logs. Logical acquisition is a safe and easy way it always works, and there is nothing to lose. In many cases, jailbreaking is the only gate to all (or most) information available in iOS and tvOS devices. We are always asked this question, and I feel it’s worth a good answer. This is not just about supporting the new jailbreak we’ll try to provide as much useful (and usable) information to LE practitioners as we can about the new exploit, why it cannot be patched by Apple and what the implications are for the future. Today is the day to try the new jailbreak with Apple’s bread-and-butter product, the iPhone. We have recently tested checkra1n with Apple TV 4. Why is the checkra1n jailbreak so important for the forensic community, and what new opportunities in acquiring Apple devices does it present to forensic experts? We’ll find out what types of data are available on both AFU (after first unlock) and BFU (before first unlock) devices, discuss the possibilities of acquiring locked iPhones, and provide instructions on installing the checkra1n jailbreak.Ĭheckra1n is not about just the iPhones. We’ve just announced a major update to iOS Forensic Toolkit, now supporting the full range of devices that can be exploited with the unpatchable checkra1n jailbreak.
