Thought that MDM (Mobile Device Management) works with corporate :-
(1) BYOD
(2) Posture Assessment
(3) VMs
Smartphone when use to access corporate data will authenticate with corporate authentication services such as corportate posture assessment, directory services, downloading of VMs to access corporate resources and reloading back to corporate servers - without allowing corporate data to be stored in the smartphone disk or vice versa.
When the smartphone is used for personal used, it will not be able upload into the corporate workspace VMs and the corporate servers.
Thus thought that MDM will not be able to access data stored into the smartphone - if the understanding is correct.
Thus there is still a need to crack the smartphone passcode even with MDM.

I’m not saying I have a lot of knowledge on iPhones. Maybe I watched one to many CSI Cyber shows. If I were the FBI, I would take the phone apart and clone the drive. That way, you could clone and hack 10 IPhones at one time. The maybe easier way is, to look for the encryption key one of drives they cloned. Even-though, this is encrypted, might be Apple encrypted. Please note: I might be really wrong about this. Also…. The password should be located in the drive, it too might be Apple encrypted.

I don't know where cook thinks that what the FBI is asking for is a "Master Key". Basically, the FBI wants apple to turn off a security feature on the phone, that any iPhone user can turn on or off themselves. That's ti. So where is cook coming from?

Eg. an individual set his own passcode "123456" to unlock his iPhone.
A master key to unlock all iPhone has passcode of say "000000" - and this will unlock all iPhone passcode.

So once the master key of passcode "000000" can unlock one iPhone, in future "000000" can be used to unlock all iPhone passcode.
