Google has got the Pixel 9's baseband wrapped in steel and concrete
The Pixel 9 packs Google’s toughest baseband yet to knock out modem vulnerabilities.
Google points out that exploiting flaws in the baseband firmware could let attackers break into device security, gain higher privileges, run arbitrary code, and install hidden backdoors, putting user data at risk. This tweak helps keep things on track by restricting code to specific paths, making it way harder for hackers to mess with how info flows inside the device. Even if the tech lingo sounds complicated, the gist of Google's updates is a big step up in baseband security for the Pixel 9, cementing its status as being among the leading Android smartphones on the market.
