This author doesn&#x27;t support the technical claims they&#x27;re making with technical fact.<p>They point at the NAND chip and just say &quot;pull off the encryption key, then decrypt the device&quot; but without supplying any fact as to how the key was stored in the iPhone 5S, what kind of resources reversing it would take, and if Apple has employed any kind of anti-reverse engineering means.<p>For all we know Apple could have thrown different elements of the decryption key all over the device, the A7, the NAND, and elsewhere. Without more technical specifics it is hard to draw the conclusion this article draws.
