What’s new:
Passware Kit Mobile 2025 v3 introduces instant data decryption for select Huawei Kirin devices, enabling forensic professionals to extract critical information even without requiring the device password. This decryption option supports Kirin 710 and 970 chipsets with UFS storage and covers popular models such as the Huawei P20 Pro, Y9s, and Honor 10.
Additionally, PKM now supports the latest hybrid encryption scheme used in Huawei devices powered by Kirin 659 and Kirin 960 chipsets, ensuring full compatibility with models such as the Huawei Mate 9 and P20 Lite.
The latest version of PKM further expands device support by adding 22 new models powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 425 and MediaTek Dimensity 800 (MT6873) chipsets.
Instant decryption of Kirin 710/970 data, regardless of the password
Passware Kit Mobile 2025 v3 introduces instant partial data decryption for select Huawei Kirin devices, allowing forensic professionals to access critical user data without the device password. The tool automatically detects various file types, such as images, archives, audio and video files, databases, and more. It decrypts their contents, though original file names are not recovered.
Once the user data is extracted, decryption can continue on a computer with the device disconnected, leveraging CPU, GPU, and distributed computing for optimal performance.
This feature supports Kirin 710 and Kirin 970 chipsets with UFS storage and is compatible with popular models including the Huawei P20 Pro, Y9s, and Honor 10. The decryption works even for devices protected with hybrid encryption scheme, also known as blob 341 encryption, which currently does not allow password recovery.
