"textContent": "Executive Summary For production cryptographic software, memory safety alone does not define security. Real-world crypto must run on every platform, maintain stable assumptions over decades, and allow explicit control over hardware behavior. While memory-safe languages like Rust offer real benefits, serious cryptographic implementations inevitably rely on unsafe code, assembly, and low-level control, eroding those guarantees. […]",
