Safety-Critical Rust Consortium

The Rust Foundation partnered with 10 founding organizations and member companies in June 2024 to create the Safety-Critical Rust Consortium — a group dedicated to supporting the responsible use of the Rust programming language in safety-critical software. Learn more about the consortium and stay tuned for updates here. 

Our world relies on complex systems and software whose failure can have grave consequences.

The Rust Foundation and its partners in the Safety-Critical Rust Consortium are committed to the responsible use of the Rust programming language in safety-critical software to avoid devastating harm to human life, property, and the environment we live in.

The Consortium’s scope will be fully delineated in the upcoming charter, but may include the development of guidelines, linters, libraries, static analysis tools, formal methods and language subsets to meet industrial and legal requirements. The Consortium’s deliverables will be developed and licensed in a manner compatible with other Rust Project endeavors.
