 # SafeDE - light lockstep hardware module
+SafeDE (Safe Diversity Enforcer) is hardware module provides light-lockstep support by means of a non-intrusive and flexible hardware module that preserves staggering across cores running redundant threads, thus bringing time diversity to avoid common cause failures.
 
-SafeDE is a small hardware module for light-lockstep
