Briefings

A leaked video from Magnet Forensics indicates a cyber-arms manufacturer is exploiting a vulnerability in iOS to bypass the 72-hour inactivity reboot security feature. Magnet developed a new device called GrayKey Preserve to permanently retain data that would otherwise be deleted after inactivity. The leak was published on October 6, 2026, and includes a quote from a Magnet employee describing the solution as a 'game changer' for iOS forensics. The evidence suggests Apple engineers are aware of the flaw and may be working on a fix, but the specific vulnerability details and the manufacturer's identity remain unconfirmed.
