CHERI Alliance is a non-profit organization accelerating the global adoption of the free and open CHERI (Capability Hardware Enhanced RISC Instructions) security technology across the computing industry.

Building on over a decade of pioneering research by the University of Cambridge and SRI International, CHERI solves the main cause of cyberattacks – lack of memory safety, which is responsible for ~ 70% of vulnerabilities.

CHERI enhances system security by hardware, and brings fine-grained memory protection and software compartmentalization.

The Alliance is actively engaging with industry, academia, and the public sector to standardize and implement CHERI across a diverse range of computing platforms. The Alliance has more than 60 members, including BT, Codasi ...
