MICROSOFT GAVE FBI A SET OF BITLOCKER ENCRYPTION KEYS TO UNLOCK SUSPECTS' LAPTOPS
Summary from the TLDR InfoSec newsletter
The FBI has obtained a warrant compelling Microsoft to hand over BitLocker recovery keys for three seized laptops, allowing agents to decrypt the drives despite full‑disk encryption. BitLocker recovery keys are often stored in Microsoft's cloud, enabling lawful access but also raising privacy and security fears if the company or its keys are compromised.
