Grsecurity: Potential contributory infringement and breach of contract risk
I stopped taking Grsec seriously a long time ago. Grsec makes the kernel more secure by breaking it. The code in their patches does not meet the standards&#x2F;style of the Linux kernel and has in fact been criticized by third parties for just not being good code. I could make a crappy patch that breaks networking and market it as a security feature because it &quot;prevents intrusion&quot;, but it also breaks useful features. They appear to have some kind of internet defense force or something defending them at every turn but it&#x27;s become more and more apparent lately that grsec is a low-quality code base maintained by programmer(s) with bad attitudes and superiority complexes.<p>I&#x27;ve been in tech for quite some time and never encountered anyone using grsec patches. They do a really good job of marketing their product on tech forums though.
