@Samuel_Michon I take issue with the crap you are spreading.

>if someone has physical access and unlimited time There is no such thing as unlimited resources.

If I had unlimited time I could crack every encrypted message on the planet.

Using DPAPI turns a 30 second hack into an online cracking job. The crypto processor in the iPhone can only check one password every ~80ms and you need the chip with you. An attacker cannot do an offline attack.
