San Bernardino, an Israeli company helps the FBI to violate the iPhone killer – TGCOM

– The FBI will not need to violate Apple’s iPhone Syed Farook, the author of the massacre of San Bernardino (California) in December 2015. According to the newspaper Yedioth Ahronoth , the US would turn Israeli-Cellebrite, a company specializing in digital espionage, to unlock the killer smartphone. But for the New York Times the truth is otherwise: American hackers are to cooperate with the FBI, in revenge against Apple.



San Bernardino, an Israeli company helps the FBI to violate the iPhone killer

the alleged hacker collaboration derives from the fact that Apple has refused to” sign them “for look for bugs and errors in its software. A real insult to the US company, which has always refused to help the FBI in gaining access to the iPhone of the aggressor: according to Tim Cook, chief executive Apple, providing a “key access “to circumvent security barriers of their baby would create a dangerous precedent, which could undermine the privacy of all its users.

in any case, to confirm the existence of an alternative track for access the iPhone has been the same Department of Justice that, Monday, March 21, has asked to cancel with this motivation the hearing scheduled for the next day in a California court. In the document delivered by the Department to the federal district court judge in California, he cites the presence of a mysterious “external entity” that would be able to decode the data of the iPhone.

When contacted by the BBC, Cellebrite it merely stated that works with the American federal police for some time, due to an agreement signed between the two parties in 2013, but did not confirm the rumor of the newspaper Yedioth Ahronoth .
