Let's quickly discuss mobile operating systems and security privacy and anonymity.
Let's start with the main phone operating systems first.
We have iOS on the iPhone and Android they are general use operating systems but we need to mention
them first.
Android an open operating system meaning you're allowed to do more with it.
This isn't good for security.
IOS is a closed restricted system restricting what you can do.
This is good for security.
Android is improving security all the time but iOS from Apple is the clear market leader for secure
mobile operating systems right now.
If you want a general use operating system and security is what you're concerned about the IRS is the
best platform for you.
We cover more on mobile and mobile network security on the course.
But you may also be interested in privacy too.
So there are other security and privacy focused mobile or cellular phone operating system smartphone
operating systems.
There is lineage OS which is a free open source operating system for smartphones and tablets based on
the official releases of Android by Google.
It is the continuation of the Sangean mod project.
There's also selfish OS which is a mobile operating system combining the Linux kernel right particular
hardware platform use the Open Source Merkle middleware and proprietary UI contributed by Djala and
other third party components.
There is also replication an open source operating system based on Android aiming to replace all proprietary
components with free software omni roam free software operating system for smartphones and tablet computers
based on the Android mobile platform micro G.
A project that aims to re-implement the proprietary Google Play services in the Android operating system
with a f l o s s replacement.
Plus if you're not familiar it stands for free or Libera and open source software.
And finally we have pure OS or pure OSS which is also available or will be available on the liberal
5 which is coming from the prism guys which you can see here.
So that's a wrap up of operating systems and how I feel about them in terms of security privacy and
anonymity.
Many of them we will be going into more details on such as tale's Unix cubes iOS Android and so on.
