+ </h1>
+
+ <p><strong>This is a newly created page (started 2020-12-05) and is in the process of
+ being written. More details and links to more detailed documentation and relevant
+ repositories will be added over time.</strong></p>
+
+ <p>This is an overview of the current set of features differentiating GrapheneOS from
+ the Android Open Source Project (AOSP). Each major release of AOSP brings substantial
+ privacy and security improvements, many of which have obsoleted historical features in
+ GrapheneOS. This page does not currently cover any of the historical features since it
+ aims to cover the current differences rather than what we've done over the years.</p>
+
+ <p>Graphene features:</p>
+
+ <ul>
+ <li>Hardened kernel</li>
+ <li>Hardened libc providing defenses against the most common classes of vulnerabilities (memory
+ corruption)</li>
+ <li>Hardened malloc (memory allocator) leveraging modern hardware capabilities to provide
+ substantial defenses against the most common classes of vulnerabilities (heap memory corruption)
+ along with reducing the lifetime of sensitive data in memory</li>
+ <li>Hardened app runtime</li>
+ <li>Filesystem access hardening</li>
+ <li>Enhanced verified boot with better security properties and reduced attack surface</li>
+ <li>Enhanced hardware-based attestation with more precise version information</li>
+ <li>Eliminates remaining holes for apps to access hardware-based identifiers</li>
+ <li>Greatly reduced remote, local and proximity-based attack surface by stripping out unnecessary
+ code, making more features optional and disabling optional features by default or when the
+ screen is locked</li>
+ <li>Low-level improvements to the filesystem-based full disk encryption used on
+ modern Android</li>
+ <li>Support for logging out of user profiles without needing a device manager: makes them inactive so that they can't continue running code while using another profile, purges disk encryption keys (which are per-profile) from memory and hardware registers</li>
+ <li>LTE-only mode to reduce cellular radio attack surface by disabling enormous amounts of legacy
+ code</li>
+ <li>Default enabled per-connection MAC randomization as an improvement over Android's default
+ per-network MAC randomization reusing the same MAC address until the DHCP lease with that
+ network expires</li>
+ <li>Vanadium: hardened WebView and default browser</li>
+ <li>Auditor: hardware-based attestation used to secure devices for users and
+ organizations instead of using it as a form of DRM</li>
+ <li>PDF Viewer: sandboxed, hardened PDF viewer using HiDPI rendering with pinch to zoom, text
+ selection, etc.</li>
+ <li>Secure application spawning system</li>
+ <li>Network permission toggle disallowing both direct and indirect network access, superior to a purely firewall-based implementation only disallowing direct access to the network without covering inter-process communication</li>
+ <li>Sensors permission toggle</li>
+ <li>Authenticated encryption for network time updates via a first party server to
+ prevent attackers from changing the time and enabling attacks based on bypassing
+ certificate / key expiry, etc.</li>
+ <li>Proper support for disabling network time updates rather than just not using
+ the results</li>
+ <li>Connectivity checks via a first party server with the option to revert to the
+ standard checks</li>
+ <li>Hardened local build / signing infrastructure</li>
+ <li>Seamless automatic OS update system that just works and stays out of the way
+ in the background without disrupting device usage</li>
+ </ul>
+
+ <p>Infrastructure features:</p>
+
+ <ul>
+ <li>Strict privacy and security practices for our infrastructure</li>
+ <li>Services hosted on OVH without involving any additional parties for CDNs,
+ mirrors or other services - we don't outsource to others</li>
+ <li>Our services are built with open technology stacks to avoid being locked in to
+ any particular hosting provider or vendor</li>
+ <li>Open documentation on our infrastructure including listing out all of our
+ services, guides on making similar setups, published configurations for each
+ of our web services, etc.</li>
+ <li>No proprietary services</li>
+ <li>Authenticated encryption for all of our services</li>
+ <li>Strong cipher configurations for all of our services (SSH, TLS, etc.)</li>
+ <li>DNSSEC for all our domains</li>
+ <li>SSHFP across all domains for pinning SSH keys</li>
+ <li>DANE TLSA records for pinning keys for all our TLS services (unfortunately only
+ used by a subset of other mail services in practice, and not yet web
+ browsers)</li>
+ <li>Static key pinning for our services in apps like Auditor</li>
+ <li>No cookies or similar client-side state for anything other than login sessions,
+ which are set up via SameSite=strict cookies and have server-side session tracking
+ with the ability to log out of other sessions</li>
+ <li>scrypt-based password hashing (likely Argon2 when the available implementations
+ are more mature)</li>
+ </ul>
+
+ <p>Beyond the technical features of the OS:</p>
+
+ <ul>
+ <li>Collaborative, open source project with a very active community and contributors</li>
+ <li>Can make your own builds and make desired changes, so you aren't stuck with
+ the decisions made by the upstream project</li>
+ <li>Non-profit project avoiding conflicts of interest by keeping commercialization
+ at a distance. Companies support the project rather than the project serving the
+ needs of any particular company</li>
+ <li>No proprietary services</li>
+ <li>Strong privacy policies</li>
+ </ul>
