Google to demand regular Android security patches from OEMs
by Volker Weber
Dave Kleidermacher who leads mobile security at Google:
We’ve also worked on building security patching into our OEM agreement. Now this will really lead to a massive increase in the number of devices, and users, receiving regular security patches.
Dave used to Work for BlackBerry and put them on a monthly patch cycle (which they are struggling to serve). It is unclear what kind of update schedule Google will demand for licensing Android.
