While it is difficult to design a secure procurement chain all the way to the SiO2, we could at least design simple enough hw/sw systems for which formal verification is an economical option. And then force government entities to use formally verified systems instead of the bug ridden crap most shops, especially the sw ones, have to ship under intense deadline pressure. The market has led us into a broken local optima, no way to get out short of state level action.
