Found by Elcomsoft, the iOS 11.4 beta has an interesting workaround for GrayKey, the box that can unlock an iPhone. After seven days of not being unlocked or being connected to a paired computer, the iOS device will limit its Lightning port's capabilities. It will only be able to charge, with no data through the port being allowed until the iOS device is charged. This puts a time limit on how long GrayKey has to unlock the iOS device. This is a clever workaround. I think seven days is a bit generous given how often people use their phones.
