iPhone even has hardware separation for keys.
It’s called Secure Enclave, I’ve mentioned it before to mixed response.
It means that even application processor kernel root kits cannot access your keys.
There is even a dedicated Secure Enclave boot ROM that initialises a memory protection engine.
I have no idea why they made this, but they did and it’s not really publicised much.
