Rust's type system ensures memory safety: well-typed Rust programs are guaranteed to not
exhibit problems such as dangling pointers, data races, and unexpected side effects through …

We present Aeneas, a new verification toolchain for Rust programs based on a lightweight
functional translation. We leverage Rust's rich region-based type system to eliminate …

We present EverCrypt: a comprehensive collection of verified, high-performance
cryptographic functionalities available via a carefully designed API. The API provably …

Effect handlers have been gathering momentum as a mechanism for modular programming
with user-defined effects. Effect handlers allow for non-local control flow mechanisms such …

The interfaces between layers of a system are susceptible to bugs if developers of adjacent
layers proceed under subtly different assumptions. Formal verification of two layers against …

We present CCF, a framework to build permissioned confidential blockchains. CCF provides
a simple programming model of a highly-available data store and a universally-verifiable log …

Given the central importance of designing secure protocols, providing solid mathematical
foundations and computer-assisted methods to attest for their correctness is becoming …

We present EverParse, a framework for generating parsers and serializers from tag-length-
value binary message format descriptions. The resulting code is verified to be safe (no …
