It recently became rebranded as GrapheneOS and is taking a + different direction based on obtaining funding for the research and development work + as a non-profit open source project rather than being a company. The reborn project is + still in a very early stage and lots of the past work on privacy and security has not + yet been restored for the new incarnation of the OS.</p> + <p>The grapheneos.org site is very new and is currently being put together. It will + have lots of additional documentation and tutorials in the future along with coverage + of various software, firmware and hardware privacy/security topics.</p> + <p>GrapheneOS is being supported with funding and developers from various companies + and other organizations interested in contributing to this shared base for a feature + rich private and secure mobile operating system able to run many existing + applications. It will take more time to organize and deploy these resources in order + for the project to have a strong development team with proper infrastructure behind + it.</p> + <h2>Roadmap</h2> + <p>Details on the roadmap of the project will be posted on the site in the near + future. In the long term, it aims to move beyond a hardened fork of the Android Open + Source Project. Achieving the goals requires moving away from relying the Linux kernel + as the core of the OS and foundation of the security model. It needs to move towards a + microkernel-based model with a Linux compatibility layer, with many stepping stones + leading towards that goal including adopting virtualization-based isolation.</p> + <p>Hardware and firmware security are core parts of the project, but it's currently + limited to research and submitting suggestions and bug reports upstream. In the long + term, the project will need to move into the hardware space.</p> <h2>Device support</h2> <p>In the current early stage of the project, GrapheneOS provides production releases for the Pixel, Pixel XL, Pixel 2, Pixel 2 XL, Pixel 3 and Pixel 3 XL.
