Linux Security Modules

LINUX SECURITY MODULES or LSM is a framework to allow Linux to support a variety of security models. The aim is to avoid favoring any security implementation. Selinux integration into the kernel was the motivation to start the LSM project. SELinux was an early proof of the ability of LSM to allow security-enhancements to be connected into, instead of strapped onto, the Linux kernel
