+ <p>GrapheneOS includes fixes for many vulnerabilities not yet fixed in
+ Android. On modern devices with Generic Kernel Image (GKI) support, we the
+ kernel to the latest stable GKI release many months before the stock OS gets
+ the update. This means we're shipping hundreds of fixes not included in the
+ stock OS including many security fixes. We also backport more fixes on top of
+ this for the kernel and for other components too.</p>
+
+ <p>We often new vulnerabilities ourselves and report them upstream. We've
+ reported dozens of vulnerabilities for both the generic Android codebase and
+ also for Pixels specifically.</p>
+
+ <p>Our overall approach is to focus on systemic privacy and security
+ improvements but fixing individual vulnerabilities is still very
+ important.</p>
