The seL4 Foundation welcomes the open-sourcing of core components of KataOS created by our Member Google. KataOS is based on seL4 and implemented mostly in the Rust programming language. KataOS is to be combined with a secure hardware platform on the RISC-V architecture.
This is an exciting addition to the seL4 ecosystem that will ease deployment of seL4-based systems. It also adds improved support for running Rust programs on seL4, which is a hot topic in the seL4 community.

The seL4 Foundation welcomes SpacemiT as a member.
SpacemiT, a semiconductor innovation company focusing on high-performance RISC-V architecture chips, announced that it has officially joined the seL4 Foundation. SpacemiT will work closely with seL4 to promote RISC-V+seL4 and will also focus on the security and performance of the operating system, thus assuring confidence in the security of the RISC-V architecture.
This hybrid event will be held in Munich, Germany, 10-13 October 2022.
The seL4 summit will cover the complete seL4 ecosystem, consisting of the verified microkernel, as well as all seL4-related technology, tools, infrastructure, products, projects, and people.
Tickets include:
- Participation in the 3-day conference, including talks, keynotes, seL4 updates & discussions
- A one-day bootcamp with workshops and trainings
- Networking with other seL4 experts and enthusiasts
- Participation in the mentoring program (for students and junior engineers)
Mentorship program
As part of the registration process, attendees have the opportunity to opt-in to a new, informal mentorship program. The purpose of this program is to foster mentorship relationships within the seL4 community. The program committee will match students and junior engineers who wish to participate as mentees with volunteer mentors. Participating attendees will be introduced to their counterparts during the summit, and will carry on afterwards with whatever level of involvement suits both parties. Mentors are welcome to volunteer for any level of involvement.
The seL4 Foundation is pleased to welcome Google as our latest member.
We are excited to see their interest in seL4 and look forward to seeing their work with seL4.
Have a look at the seL4 summit Program!
We have an amazing line-up of cool seL4 work, with a combination of
technical research and development, experience reports of seL4 in the field,
technical discussions and Birds-of-a-feather sessions, as well as a whole
day of seL4 bootcamp with tutorials and training.
The seL4 Foundation is pleased to welcome Lattice X.
LatticeX Foundation cultivates academic research, technology advancements and industrial applications in the fields that foster the development of LatticeX ecosystem.
