## Why a new LSM? Are SELinux, AppArmor, Smack and Tomoyo not good enough?

The current access control LSMs are fine for their purpose which is to give the
*root* the ability to enforce a security policy for the *system*. What is
missing is a way to enforce a security policy for any application by its
developer and *unprivileged user* as seccomp can do for raw syscall filtering.
You could mention here that the first case is Mandatory Access Control, 
in general terms.
