Abstract
The internet, and in fact all our vital public infrastructure, runs on software. That software should be safe and free (as in speech). The Trifecta Tech Foundation has been founded to further that cause: It is a home for several projects that can be considered “foundational". This is more than merely “Rewriting in Rust”, which I will demonstrate using the sudo-rs project as an example, as well as through Trifecta’s work on promoting secure time synchronization, and its other projects.
