Many vendors provide model-driven tools today, incl. business process management (BPM), model-driven engineering/development (MDE/MDD), model-driven integration (MDI), enterprise architecture (EA) etc.
Process-let SOA orchestration and model-driven code generation or service integration is also a reality today, and big vendors such as Microsoft have announced that they will release these features in their mass-market software development tools.
This is great news for model-driven security, which ties into model-driven tools in order to automatically and traceably produce fine-grained, contextual security policies.
The fact that mainstream tools are available and in use today enables shrink-wrapped, push-of-a-button model-driven security to be added to such model-driven tools - ObjectSecurity has just produced such a shrink-wrapped security policy generator for IntalioBPMS and their OpenPMF model-driven security technology.
SOA security, and specifically security policy management for SOA are also being closely examined, and model-driven security has been identified as a great solution.
So everything is finally coming together in the mass market - watch this space!

Dr. Ulrich Lang, CEO & Co-Founder ObjectSecurity
Dr. Ulrich Lang (CEO, co-founder ObjectSecurity) received his Ph.D. from the University of Cambridge Computer Laboratory (Security Group) on conceptual aspects of middleware security in 2003 (sponsored by the UK Defence and Evaluation Research Agency (DERA), after having completed a Master's Degree (M. Sc.) in Information Security with distinction from Royal Holloway College (University of London) in 1997. On the management side, he has recently completed a Business Marketing Strategy course at the Kellogg School of Management (Northwestern University). Prior to his M. Sc. he studied computer science & management at the University of Munich and at Royal Holloway College (University of London). He has served in the German federal civil defence (technical and logistical relief) for several years. He has also previously worked as a proposal evaluator for public-funded R&D projects and as an independent information security consultant on various CORBA based banking projects. Ulrich Lang is the lead author on a book written with Rudolf Schreiner on “Developing Secure Distributed Systems with CORBA”, and published various articles in journals and many publications at international conferences and workshops. In addition to his strategic managerial activities, Ulrich Lang's current interests are organisational information security, security policy development, and security visualisation for complexity reduction. He is currently involved in several security and software projects, including ObjectSecurity's collaboration with the U.S. Naval Research Laboratory.
Rudolf Schreiner, CTO & Co-Founder, ObjectSecurity
Rudolf Schreiner (CTO, co-founder) received his Master's (Dipl-Phys.) in physics from University of Munich in 1993. After graduation he worked as an independent software engineer and consultant on various computer security projects in banking, manufacturing and telecommunications. Rudolf Schreiner is the principal architect behind MICOSec Secure CORBA and the ObjectWall IIOP firewall. He has served in the German federal civil defence (technical and logistical relief) for several years. His main interest is the modelling and development of mission critical and secure applications. Rudolf Schreiner is currently the chief architect and coordinator for our OpenPMF policy management framework. Amongst other topics, he is also involved in the development of secure distributed systems in the air traffic management domain.
