[Cisspstudy] Bell-Lapadula?

Bell Lapadula does address flow control.

It will not allow the information to flow in a way that would compromise
Confidentiality such as allowed a Secret document to be written into a
confidential container for example.  BLP has to be combined with the flow
model and the state model to achieve something useful in real life

Take care
