Why GrapheneOS

GrapheneOS is a secure and privacy-focused mobile OS enhancing Android with strong security features, minimal Google services integration, and a focus on user privacy and app compatibility.

GrapheneOS stands out as a secure and private mobile operating system that enhances the Android Open Source Project (AOSP) framework without compromising on usability and app compatibility. It emphasizes technical advancements in privacy and security rather than relying on marketing tactics, ensuring robust protection against unknown vulnerabilities through attack surface reduction, exploit mitigations, and improved sandboxing. Noteworthy for not bundling Google services intrusively, GrapheneOS provides a secure environment that supports broad carrier functionality without invasive access, emphasizes privacy by default, and includes unique features like sandboxed Google Play, enhanced verified boot, and extensive exploit mitigations. Additionally, it offers hardened applications like Vanadium for web browsing and Auditor for hardware-based security verification, alongside other specialized features to improve user privacy and security further.
