NSA Releases Security-Enhanced Android

Posted by timothy on from the but-don't-worry dept.

An anonymous reader writes with the recent news that, in line with its goal to provide secure phones to government employees in various domains, "The NSA has released a set of security enhancements to Android. These appear to be based on SELinux, which was also originally created by the NSA."

    One source said it has twice as many backdoors as SELinux. Another source said ten times as many.

    I think they're both correct.
