Described is a high-assurance network gateway generator that generates and encodes network gateway code on a computer readable medium. In operation, the network gateway generator receives input artifacts, which are translated into corresponding formats as translated data. The translated data is distributed to an OS code generator, a glue code generator, and a communications code generator. The OS code generator then generates OS code based on the translated data. The communications code generator proceeds to generate deserialization and filtering code based on the translated data. Further, a glue code generator generates glue code based on the OS code and translated data. An executable network gateway code is then generated by combining the glue code, deserialization code, and filtering code. Finally, the executable network gateway code is then encoded on a computer readable medium.
