Law enforcement have long complained that they need access to locked devices to help with their investigations. But security experts have decried efforts by the government to lobby for backdoors, arguing that hackers could also get that same access and use it for their own gain.

The feature, called USB Restricted Mode, was first noticed by Elcomsoft researchers looking through the iOS 11.4 code. It disables USB data (it will still charge) if the phone is left locked for a week, re-enabling it if it’s unlocked normally.

USB Restricted Mode was outlined this morning by Elcomsoft after testing confirmed that the feature has indeed been enabled. In Elcomsoft's experience, after an iPhone or iPad has been updated to iOS 11.4, if it hasn't been unlocked or connected to a paired computer in the last 7 days using a passcode, the Lightning port is useless for data access and limited to charging.

According to security blog Elcomsoft, the latest iOS 11.4 beta includes a new USB Restricted Mode. It notes that this feature was originally introduced in early iOS 11.3 betas, but was later removed in the final release.

Discovered by security researchers Elcomsoft, the new feature is said to be “aimed squarely at law enforcement” and automatically password-locks the device’s Lightning port after seven days of inactivity. At that point, the port will only function for charging — crucially eliminating data transfers, such as backups or extractions — until the correct password is entered.

"To improve security, for a locked iOS device to communicate with USB accessories you must connect an accessory via Lightning connector to the device while unlocked — or enter your device passcode while connected — at least once a week," reads Apple documentation highlighted by security firm ElcomSoft. The feature actually made an appearance in iOS 11.3 betas, but like AirPlay 2 was removed from the finished code.

Unter Forensikern wurde die geplante Änderung seit längerem diskutiert, die Funktion sei “offensichtlich gut für den Datenschutz”, aber “wahrscheinlich schlecht für die Community”, merkte etwa der russische Forensiksoftware-Hersteller ElcomSoft an – diese Methode zum Extrahieren von iPhone-Daten etwa bei Grenzkontrollen sei schließlich “die leichteste und kompatibelste”.

Even if IT has strong access controls, attackers can still access some mobile devices using legitimate forensics recovery tools, such as the Elcomsoft Mobile Forensic Bundle. Because end users often use mobile devices to access business applications, such as email, cloud file-sharing and remote access, as well as to store sensitive information on their devices, stolen devices can affect businesses.

In Elcomsoft Phone Viewer, I started examining searches and saw everything from Paris and Panama that I searched for in addition to other historical searches. This is great news, but let’s keep going because these could just be generic searches where the user didn’t request directions.[..] Finally, we find the directions the user searched for. Best part, we get to see how the requested the directions (walk, drive, transit, fly, etc.) Pretty cool stuff.
