SAN FRANCISCO – There are at least three ways the FBI could attempt to extract information from the phone of San Bernardino killer Syed Rizwan Farook without having to ask Apple for help, hardware-security experts say.
None are easy, all are expensive and time consuming, and at least two run the risk of physically destroying the phone and everything on it. But they are possible, and one is commonly used by companies that reverse-engineer computer chips in search of patent infringements.
Given the resources, "it’s almost always technically possible to reverse-engineer a product,” said Julia Elvidge, president of Chipworks, a Canadian company that does patent analytics and forensics.
