Abstract
Probabilistic memory safety combines randomization and replication in the hope that attacks will lead to observable differences across the replicas and hence be detected. It has evolved from simple heap-data protection to full-fledged survivability, harnessing checkpoint/restore facilities and hardware heterogeneity.
