The bit tying in to my comment a few days ago is they note that apple wont
confirm but no doubt does provide a signed private app that takes the
encrypted key material off the device for brute forcing. And an app for
dumping all data off the device if thats also not possible without jail
breaking

I'm not sure if you're thinking primarily of the operating-system level
passwords or third-party crypto apps.

Yes, I'm thinking its probably close to a degenerate case of cracking
a password from the desktop. Per
Surely one cant think of the limitations (requirement for cooperation from
the OS to test the PIN) as if they are cryptographic limitations...
Apple probably supplies such a service themself to law enforcement as a
private apple approved ready-to-go app.

Hi All,
Older iOS devices used a 4 digit PIN code, which was next to no
protection. Newer iOS allow passcodes which consist of a full
(fuller?) alphabet.
Assuming a weak password policy (for example, 4 or 6 characters) are
there any real benefits over PINs?
