It's nice to see that the Apple Security Research Device (i.e. the iPhone with root access) hasn't been forgotten about[0]. They even describe the additional security protections they had to do to ensure an attacker didn't give this device to someone that thought it was a regular iPhone (for example, the phone won't cold boot without being plugged into a charger, and if you plug it in, it shows the words "Security Research Device" before booting XNU in verbose mode)
