Hi!

In our new article we discuss available methods of the key extraction or recovery and the perspectives of decryption of encrypted WhatsApp databases without the crypt key

How do you usually decrypt such databases?

Encryption key is very basic key, we have do a complete goverment reverse engineering of whatsapp. And found some nice code that even could enable call recording, remove all your protections REMOTE and be intercepted SMS and Calls (for maybe police).

a) If you have SIM or do sim clonning as you have phone number inside the whatsapp config file.
b) If you DO NOT have sim, there are plenty of solutions, just grab the key from inside.

regards

"Nowadays there are no public solutions for decryption of encrypted WhatsApp databases without the crypt key." Public NO, private yes

"reverse engineering of WhatsApp code in order to understand the encryption algorithm. Very often the bugs in code allow the forensic experts to make development of decryption methode much easier, or even find backdoors which help to decrypt the data very quick;"
Thats Exactly what we do

Or more simply just stop telling us how much more clever than anyone else you are, we do believe your word on it.

We all know that some software exist (or may exist) in the hands of selected government agencies or particular police forces, you don't really need to remind us of this every time.

These are your options

Physical dump of the device

Downgrade the apk and do a backup

"generate" the key while you restore the backup to a phone of your choice where you can perform a physical dump. You'd need to know the number associated which the whatsapp account and access to the activated matching SIM card so you can receive the code to validate WhatsApp.
