#memorysafety
Had a bunch of thoughts about the recent safety stuff, way more than fit in social media post... Blog post story time! (It's a bit of a ramble, sorry about that...)

Story-time: C++, bounds checking, performance, and compilers
Recently, several of my colleagues at Google shared the story of how we are retrofitting spatial safety onto our monolithic C++ codebase: https://security.googleblog.com/2024/11/retrofitting-spatial-s...

👻 No ghost pointers here – Rust keeps our memory alive and safe.

Happy Halloween from the Ferrous Systems team! 🎃🦀

Do you like Ferris' costume?

Just cut the v0.5.0 release of River, a reverse proxy written in Rust, using the Pingora proxying engine from Cloudflare, and sponsored by ISRG (the folks behind Let's Encrypt)!

This version adds a ton of features like load balancing and rate limiting. Release notes here: github.com/memorysafety...

github.com/memorysafety/river seems like the more comparable project, looking forward to checking it out when it's more mature. I'm definitely a big fan of Caddy right now.
GitHub - memorysafety/river: This repository is the home of the River reverse proxy application, based on the pingora library from Cloudflare.

The German Federal Office for Information Security (@bsi.bund.de) and the Sovereign Tech Agency are endorsing the statement “Improving Europe's cybersecurity posture through #memorysafety,” which calls for more support for large-scale adoption of memory-safe technology.

The joint statement “Improving Europe's cybersecurity posture through memory safety”, has now been published: trifectatech.org/blog/calling...

It calls for stronger #MemorySafety incentives in EU cybersecurity policies.

Thanks to all supporters and contributors!

What Is Rust

Was debugging Rust code at 3am and realized its memory safety features are a game changer. Rust will replace Solidity in 2 years or I'm wrong.

Marc and Hugo are at ONE Conference in The Hague today! This afternoon, they will give their talk 'You're not secure by design, if you're not memory safe!'.

To the #Rustaceans out there, how much of an extra burden is it to write and maintain a library that exposes its public API not just via Rust but also unmangled C?
