An Israeli company helped the FBI in unlocking the iPhone used by one of the San Bernardino, California shooters, according to reports.
Israel's Cellebrite, is a provider of mobile forensic software that says it does business with thousands of law enforcement and intelligence agencies, militaries and governments in more than 90 countries.
An official source told NBC News that the company had helped. Neither the FBI nor Cellebrite has confirmed the reports.
The FBI hacked into the iPhone used by gunman Syed Farook, who died with his wife in a gun battle with police after they killed 14 people in December in San Bernardino.
The iPhone, issued to Farook by his employer, the county health department, was found in a vehicle the day after the shooting.
