SCI Semiconductor has produced the first silicon implementation of CHERIoT, moving beyond software and FPGA simulations to a physical ICENI chip. This hardware delivers full CHERI memory safety features plus CHERIoT extensions for deterministic use-after-free protection and interrupt control, targeting production-grade compartmentalized RTOS deployment.
Background
CHERIoT is a research platform extending CHERI architecture with temporal safety and compartmentalization for secure embedded systems, previously limited to simulation environments.
