Biometrics, also people are horrible at making good passwords/pin codes. There's also normally a few tricks to get around being locked out for X minutes/days/years. Also you can bet Apple or whoever made his phone bent over backwards to help the FBI get in to that phone. The idiot tried to shoot a former president of the United States.
