May I ask you a question,
I'm currently studying about bell lapadula model for my research and I need to implementation it as an example. Can BLP model implement in SELinux? If it can, can you explain to me, how to do it, because I'm not really sure about how to implement it in SELinux?

Thank you so much..
If you can help me, I really appreciate it..
