The new iPhone 3GS is completely useless for businesses because it’s encryption is easily defeated in less than two minutes.
“It is kind of like storing all your secret messages right next to the secret decoder ring,” said Jonathan Zdziarski, an iPhone developer and a hacker who teaches forensics courses on recovering data from iPhones. “I don’t think any of us [developers] have ever seen encryption implemented so poorly before, which is why it’s hard to describe why it’s such a big threat to security.”
The iPhone is broken, for all intents and purposes, for anything that needs to be secure. This includes passwords, credit card details, and social security information.
