ElcomSoft Breaks Into iCloud - No Password Required

MOSCOW, June 17, 2014 /PRNewswire/ --

    ElcomSoft Co. Ltd. updates Elcomsoft Phone Password Breaker, a mobile forensic tool
for acquiring data from Apple and BlackBerry devices, adding over-the-air acquisition from
Apple iCloud without requiring the user's Apple ID or password.

    The new release enables password-free entry into suspects' iCloud accounts, providing
forensic customers with true real-time access to information essential for an
investigation. With password-free entry, ElcomSoft allows investigators accessing
information stored in the suspect's account even if the original Apple ID and password are
not known.

    Password-free access to iCloud backups is made possible by using authentication tokens
acquired from suspect's PC. ElcomSoft supplies all necessary tools to acquire and decrypt
such tokens from Windows and Mac OS X computers. This breakthrough capability is unique to
Elcomsoft Phone Password Breaker, allowing investigators to have real-time access to
information stored in Apple iCloud without having login credentials of the user.

    "We learned to bypass the login and password authentication when accessing iCloud",
says Vladimir Katalov, ElcomSoft CEO. "This is a major achievement of our researchers, and
a breakthrough feature for our forensic customers".

    The ability to bypass login and password authentication is available in the Forensic
edition of Elcomsoft Phone Password Breaker.

    Using Authentication Tokens to Bypass iCloud Login and Password

    Being able to use authentication tokens acquired from the suspect's computer is of
major importance to forensic investigators. Authentication tokens can be obtained from the
suspect's computer if iCloud Control Panel is installed and the user was logged into
iCloud Control Panel on that PC at the time of token acquisition. The iCloud Control Panel
is an integral part of Mac OS systems, and installs separately on Windows PCs.

    ElcomSoft supplies command-line tools for locating, extracting and decrypting binary
authentication tokens from the suspect's computer. During the extraction, authentication
tokens for all users of that computer can be extracted, including domain users (providing
that their system logon passwords are known). Windows and Mac OS versions of this tool are
available.
