Elcomsoft iPhone Password Breaker

Recover Password-Protected iPhone, iPad and iPod Backups

Elcomsoft iPhone Password Breaker enables forensic access to password-protected backups for iPhone, iPhone 3G, iPhone 3GS, iPhone 4, iPad, and iPod Touch 1st, 2nd, and 3rd Gen devices. Featuring the company’s patent-pending GPU acceleration technology, Elcomsoft iPhone Password Breaker is the first GPU-accelerated iPhone/iPod password recovery tool on the market. The new tool recovers the original plain-text password that protects encrypted backups containing address books, call logs, SMS archives, calendars, camera snapshots, voice mail and email account settings, applications, Web browsing history and cache. The program is also able to read and decrypt keychains (saved passwords to mail accounts, web sites and 3rd party applications) from password-protected backups (if password is known or recovered).

Features and Benefits

• Gain access to information stored in password-protected iPhone and iPod Touch backups
• Recover the original plain-text password
• Read and decrypt keychain data (email account passwords, Wi-Fi passwords, and passwords you enter into websites and some other applications)
• Save time with cost-efficient GPU acceleration when one or several ATI or NVIDIA video cards are installed
• Hardware acceleration on Tableau TACC1441 hardware
• Perform advanced dictionary attacks with highly customizable permutations
• Perform offline attacks without Apple iTunes installed
• Recover passwords to backups for original and ‘jailbroken’ iPhone, iPhone 3G, iPhone 3GS, iPhone 4, iPad, and iPod Touch 1st, 2nd, and 3rd Gen devices
• Compatible with all versions of iTunes (incl. 10.0) and iOS (3 and 4, incl. 4.1)

GPU Acceleration

ElcomSoft offers a highly efficient, cost-effective solution to lengthy attacks by dramatically increasing the speed of password recovery when one or more supported video cards are present. The company’s patent-pending GPU acceleration reduces the time required to recover iPhone/iPod backup passwords by orders of magnitude. The latest generation of ElcomSoft GPU acceleration technology supports unlimited numbers of ATI or NVIDIA boards such as NVIDIA GeForce 8, 9, 100, 200 and 400- series and ATI RADEON 4800 and 5000 series. ElcomSoft GPU acceleration provides true supercomputer performance at consumer prices.

Note: benchmarks have been made on backups created with iOS 3.x. Password recovery speed on recently released iOS 4 is about five times less because of improved protection in the new version.

Advanced Attacks

Elcomsoft iPhone Password Breaker supports an advanced dictionary attack with customizable permutations. According to multiple security researches, the majority of users choose meaningful, dictionary-based passwords that are easier for them to remember. Elcomsoft iPhone Password Breaker is able to recover such passwords and their variations quickly and efficiently no matter which language they are. Elcomsoft iPhone Password Breaker supports a variety of permutations of dictionary words, trying hundreds of variants for each dictionary word to ensure the best possible chance to recover the password.

Extract and Decrypt Stored Passwords

In Apple iPhone devices, passwords to email accounts, Web sites, and certain third-party software are stored securely in keychains that are encrypted with hardware keys unique to each individual device. Prior to the release of iOS 4, keychains remained encrypted with a device-specific hardware key; but with the release of Apple iOS4, the keychains are stored encrypted only with backup’s master password. Elcomsoft iPhone Password Breaker is able to instantly read (and decrypt all keychain data), including passwords — if password is known (or recovered).

Offline Backups

Elcomsoft iPhone Password Breaker does not use Apple iTunes, and does not need to have it installed. All password recovery operations are performed offline.
