A *(security) concept concerned with controlling the flow of _(information) within a system. In particular, it expresses information flow from endpoint to endpoint rather than step-wise as a _(capability) system generally does. It does <em>not</em> encompass encryption-based security or access-control lists, but rather expresses something alongside them.
