Open source

Some of it,
shared back.

Where opening the source helps the craft and protects the user, we do — most prominently for TrustGuard, our Android privacy and security app. Permissive code where we can, GPL where the use case demands it.

We share what earns sharing. Not everything needs to be open.

The partially open-source core of our Android privacy and security app — runs entirely on the device, no telemetry, no remote servers. The app itself ships outside Google Play; the parts that benefit the wider community live here.

How we think about open source

  • · Security software wants to be auditable. Apps that claim to protect users should be inspectable by users. That's why TrustGuard's core ships with source.
  • · Not everything needs to be open. Some of our work stays closed — we share what earns sharing.
  • · License matches the use case. GPL where reciprocity matters; permissive (MIT/Apache) where we want maximum adoption of a primitive.
More repos when they're ready, not before.
