So it sounds like it's CHERI-style, only "randomizing" things over time?

(no paper access for me)

e.g. let's say you went whole hog (E.g. 128bit CHERI 64bit pointer + 64bit metadata) and periodically traverses the heap and swizzles/reencrypts/whatever the meta data? Seems to assume that it can traverse the heap, but I'll ignore that for now
