The CHERI project aims to prevent vulnerabilities at the hardware and software level through fine-grained memory protection, including spatial and temporal memory safety to prevent out-of-bounds accesses and use-after-free bugs, and scalable compartmentalization that can mitigate potential exploitation of future unknown vulnerabilities in software.

The talk will present the current state of available software for CHERI-RISC-V and Arm Morello, a prototype System-on-Chip. Furthermore, this talk will present the development board implementing CHERI, that was developed by Arm and delivered to UK Research and Innovation Digital Security by Design Programme partners and the CHERI ecosystem. If you have an interest in the topic of CHERI software, listen to this talk, where you will hear Konrad Witaszczyk present at Driving IT 2022
