Pixel 9a / GrapheneOS
Introducing the fully degoogled phone with GrapheneOS. The Pixel 9a is configured out of the box for privacy, security, and the versatility of open-source software with sandbox capabilities for closed-source apps.
Benefits Over Standard Smartphones
Using GrapheneOS over a traditional smartphone OS has several advantages:
- User Privacy: Graphene OS has a focus on privacy, reducing data collection and providing more control over data usage.
- Security: It offer enhanced security measures, lowering vulnerability to malware and other threats.
- Transparency: As open-source software, the codebase is publicly accessible for review, increasing trust through transparency.
- Control: These platforms provide user control over permissions, enabling customization of app access to data and features.
Remember that, while GrapheneOS is more secure and privacy-oriented, no system can guarantee 100% protection against all potential threats. Regular updates, strong unique pass-phrases, and vigilance when downloading and granting permissions to apps will significantly contribute to maintaining your digital security and privacy.
This device does not come with any additional apps provided by GoTAK unless selected. We do not retain or keep on file any PII, IMEI or other information regarding your order. Purchases can also be arranged in person at our office upon special request.
We do not sell any VPN service, data protection, cloud backup or the like, we believe these capabilities should be vetted by the end-user. Please do your due diligence with any OPSEC related matter.

DEGOOGLED, OPEN-SOURCE
Operating System
GrapheneOS is a privacy and security-focused mobile OS with Android app compatibility. This open-source OS focuses on providing advanced security features, and has a rigorous hardening process, making it less prone to security vulnerabilities.
Sandbox Environment
GrapheneOS enhances Android's security by implementing advanced sandboxing techniques that isolate applications and system components to prevent unauthorized access and mitigate potential exploits. Each app operates within its own sandbox, restricting its ability to interact with other apps or access sensitive system resources without explicit user consent. GrapheneOS further strengthens these sandboxes by fortifying the kernel and refining sandboxing policies. Notably, it offers a compatibility layer for running unmodified Google Play Services within the standard app sandbox, ensuring they function without elevated privileges or special access. This approach maintains robust security while providing compatibility with apps that depend on Google Play Services
Duress Pin / Password
GrapheneOS offers a 'Duress PIN/Password' feature designed for situations where users may be compelled to unlock their devices under duress. By entering a pre-configured duress PIN or password at any device authentication prompt, the system initiates an irreversible process that deletes all hardware keystore keys, including those essential for disk encryption, effectively rendering all user data inaccessible. Additionally, this action erases all installed eSIMs and subsequently shuts down the device. This feature ensures that sensitive information is securely and promptly destroyed when necessary.
Granular Permissions
GrapheneOS provides users with the ability to control each application's access to network connectivity, file access and device sensors. This means users can disable an app's ability to connect to the internet or access sensors such as the microphone and accelerometer, thereby preventing unauthorized data collection or transmission.
