The Israeli company Cellebrite, known mainly for the iPhone tampering apps which works with governments worldwide, claims to have developed new software that can "break" any phone running iOS and Android.
The company used Twitter to advertise her latest app, and states that it can recover any information stored on iPhone or Android devices, but also data stored on third-party applications such as WhatsApp, Facebook and many others.
Information posted on the company's page reveals that Cellebrite may also acquire access to data already deleted from each phone or even recover information from damaged devices.
"Bypassing the lock and executing eqtreatmentς αρχείων όλου του συστήματος σε οποιαδήποτε συσκευή iOS ή φυσική export συστήματος αρχείων (κρυπτογραφημένα αρχεία root) σε πολλές συσκευές Android υψηλής τεχνολογίας “, αναφέρει η Cellebrite.
“Access data of third-party applications, talks, emails and attachments, deleted content and more, increase your chances of finding incriminating evidence.”
Cellebrite, which emphasizes that its offer is targeted only at governments trying to unlock devices using criminals or terrorists, says its application works flawlessly with Apple devices running iOS 7 up to iOS 12.3, and for the majority of the high-end Android devices manufactured by Samsung, Huawei, LG, Xiaomi and Motorola.
The Israeli company claims that its applications should not fall into the wrong hands to protect exploits, since smartphone makers would be trying to fix the security gaps.
Apple has already tried to tackle Cellebrite hacking products with too many updates in iOS but also with a new feature that blocks the USB connection time on locked iPhone.
It is worth recalling that hacking company had fallen victim to hacking the 2017.
