One good thing about windows phones was that hardly anyone would have been insane enough to spend resources to develop a forensic tool for it.

Lol, did you see what windows computers do? They literally upload your key to microsoft. Like they aren't event hiding the fact. If you don't create a microsoft account to allow for the upload, then they just store the key unencrypted and its effectively like no encryption.

That's because people are stupid enough to never write down their keys and it's better to have somewhat worse encryption compared to no encryption.

In an enterprise the recovery keys are most often stored in AD or Entra.

Anyone have the linked docs from the article? Looks like archive didn't get them in time.

Has there been any information about how long physical access is needed for these attack methods to extract data?

I've got my auto restart set at 8 hours, in graphene's mastodon thread, they say 10 minutes is best for highest levels of security. The short time frame given in that thread makes me wonder if these exploits give instant access to data.
