A presentation that I will be keenly interested to see at Black Hat this year involves some iPhone hacking fun with Charles Miller and Vincenzo Iozzo.
From Technology Review:
Now two researchers hope to make things considerably easier for would-be iPhone hackers. Next month, Charles Miller, a principal analyst at Independent Security Evaluators, and Vincenzo Iozzo, a student at the University of Milan, in Italy, will present a way to run nonapproved code on Apple’s mobile device at the Black Hat Security Conference, in Las Vegas.
Researchers have previously found vulnerabilities in the security of the iPhone; Apple disclosed and issued a patch for a dozen such security holes in the device last November.
This will be an interesting one. Curious if Apple will lawyer up on this one. For the full article read on.
