Recently Google’s Project Zero Team reported some vulnerabilities and fixes were implemented immediately. They have reported two vulnerabilities to us in the last 10 days. The first of them on June 19th, 2015, and the second on June 26th, 2015. In both cases, the issues were solved in less than 3 days, over a weekend. We made sure the fixes were available automatically to every customer, both businesses and home users, through the regular security updates of our products.
