Morph: Firmware Protection With Its Own Proof
Amorphous Systems presents a compiler-level tool for protecting embedded firmware while proving that the hardened build behaves like the original.
Field notes
Morph is described as a compiler pass operating on intermediate representation before machine-code generation, allowing teams to select individual functions for protection while leaving other code byte-identical. The page lists C, C++, Rust, Ada, Zig, and mixed-language builds across Arm Cortex-M, Cortex-A, RISC-V, and x86. It also says builds run entirely on the customer’s machines, including air-gapped CI, and claims roughly 2% flash overhead with near-zero steady-state overhead.
