Hi, I'm currently researching ios kernel security and I was wondering if the kernel cache is encrypted for versions starting from iOS 14. I know it was left unencrypted for iOS 10, but I couldn't find any info on whether they went back to encrypting it or not. Any help would be appreciated.

I doubt it since Apple claims it doesn’t store any user data, but I’m only speculating. I’ve not found any recent information regarding the matter. Maybe others will offer their insight soon.
