David Chisnall describes how the CHERI hardware architecture strengthens pointer safety to address isolation and sharing problems in C and C++. The presentation also highlights CHERIoT for microcontrollers and shows how CHERI can replace expensive OS-level RPC with lightweight, auditable compartmentalization without major rewrites.
