Once the password is recovered, Elcomsoft said its software allows a person to examine their keychain and export that data into XML (Extensible Markup Language) or plain text document. Other factors in how long its software takes to recover a password depends on a person’s computer and the power of its CPU and graphics card. The company says that Apple’s encryption of the backup is excellent, as the passwords can only be figured out using brute-force attacks, where a computer tries millions upon millions of possible combinations, or dictionary attacks, which use lists of commonly used words.Įlcomsoft said its software doesn’t have a 100 percent success rate, but if a person selects a short and simple password, it could be recovered in seconds. But Elcomsoft says it can figure a password out with its latest iPhone Password Breaker application.
