Abstract
Apparatuses for computing are disclosed herein. In embodiments, an apparatus may include one or more processors, a memory, and a compiler to be operated by the one or more processors to compile a computer program. The compiler may include one or more analyzers to parse and analyze source code of the computer program that generates pointers or de-references pointers. The compiler may also include a code generator coupled to the one or more analyzers to generate executable instructions for the source code of the computer program including insertion of additional encryption or decryption executable instructions into the computer program, based at least in part on a result of the analysis, to authenticate memory access operations of the source code.
