Abstract

Proof-Carrying Code (PCC) is a generic framework intended to facilitate safe execution of code from an unknown or untrusted source. The basic idea of PCC, as the name implies, is that a piece of executable code comes packaged with a proof of its safety according to some user-specified policy. The development of this technology has been fueled by research over the past decade in the use of type systems and logic to verify properties of low-level code (i.e. assembly or binary machine code).
