[$] Rustls: memory safety for TLS
The movement toward using memory-safelanguages, and Rust in particular, has picked up a lot of steam over the past year or two. Removing thepossibility of buffer overflows, use-after-free bugs, and other woes associatedwith unmanaged pointers is an attractive feature, especially given thatthe majority of today's vulnerabilities stem from memory-safetyissues. On April 20, the Internet Security ResearchGroup (ISRG) announceda funding initiative targeting the Rustls TLS library in order toprepare it for more widespread adoption-including by ISRG's Let's Encrypt project.
