Proofcraft awarded seL4 Trusted Service Provider status

The seL4 Foundation has awarded interim endorsement to Proofcraft as an seL4 Trusted Service Provider.

Formal verification is what makes seL4 unique. With increasing uptake and adoption, seL4 is evolving, supporting more platforms, architectures, configurations, and features. An increasing number of high assurance systems are built with seL4 as a trustworthy foundation.

As seL4 code evolves, so must its formal proofs. As more systems are built on seL4, there is an increased need to ensure correct configuration and initialisation, and correctness of critical components.

Proofcraft is here to help. If you are interested in commercial support for seL4-related verification projects, training or consulting, contact us at contact@proofcraft.systems.

Proofcraft joins the seL4 Foundation!

Proofcraft is excited to join the seL4 Foundation! seL4 is central to Proofcraft’s vision for a verified future. At Proofcraft, Gerwin Klein is leading the scientific direction of seL4 verification. Rafal Kolanski is our head of engineering, and has led the recent major seL4 proof engineering efforts, such as the functional correctness proof for seL4 on RISC-V. We are excited to continue to push the seL4 verification story forward!
