CatVM: A virtual machine that purrs with performance
CatVM (Cat Virtual Machine) is a cross-platform bytecode virtual machine designed specifically for running untrusted code from potentially malicious sources. It provides sandboxed execution for potentially harmful programs. Because of its security features, CatVM is widely used in scenarios where security and isolation are paramount, such as web browsers and embedded systems. It offers mechanisms like memory isolation, code verification, and restricted system calls to ensure the secure execution of untrusted guest code. By leveraging CatVM, developers can create sandboxes to safely execute and monitor untrusted code, mitigating potential security risks.
