Recently, Duo Labs investigated the state of security patching when it came to Android devices. The team’s findings about the larger Android ecosystem prompted them to take a closer look at the highly acclaimed Nexus line of phones.
Duo Labs did some research on a dataset of over 200k Android phones and found that:
- 99% of Nexus phones are able to receive monthly security updates
- As of June 30, 2 out of 3 Nexus devices are fully patched
- 87% of Nexus devices are running the latest version of Android
