Why firewalls won’t matter in a few years

Could you expand on your last para please - it seems to promise there is a solution to software security already available ...

E-language seems a bit out dated from the intro I can find, What's an IO offload engine? What do you means about unified model (capability based / distributed implies E-language again?)

Is this using strong data types to base security capabilities on? And how does hardware for in here

I ask for interest as your comments here and on Schneier imply a lot of knowledge under the surface and am run in to catch up

I covered a lot of ground in this counterpoint to Dan Geer on why our security sucks:

https://www.schneier.com/blog/archives/2014/04/dan_geer_on_h...

Read it, its two links, and whatever they link to for plenty of inspiration. If you want, I'll email you a list of my designs and essays on there. I use his blog to reach as many people as possible. I can't make money on high assurance without selling out to the enemy so I just posted my stuff online for free anyway. The discussions and peer review over there were grade A with a few high assurance guys as regulars. This site is good, too. I'll get you those links if you want.
