Control-flow Enforcement Technology (Intel® CET)

Return-oriented Programming (ROP), and similarly CALL/JMP-oriented programming (COP/JOP), have been the prevalent attack methodology for stealth exploit writers targeting vulnerabilities in programs.

CET provides the following components to defend against ROP/JOP style control-flow subversion attacks:
