FBI could unlock iPhone 'within minutes'

Apple and the FBI are locked in a legal dispute in the United States.

At issue is an iPhone that belonged to a man who shot several people dead in California.

The FBI wants to access information on the phone but says it can't without help from Apple. Apple says that it doesn't want to compromise its security measures because it says, it could leave all its customers open to data breaches.

Eddie Mair spoke to Ian Brown, Professor of Information Security and Privacy at the Oxford Internet Institute.
