+B<FLASK> is a security framework that defines a mandatory access control policy
+providing fine-grained controls over Xen domains, allowing the policy writer
+to define what interactions between domains, devices, and the hypervisor are
+permitted. Some example of what you can do using XSM/FLASK:
+ - Prevent two domains from communicating via event channels or grants
+ - Control which domains can use device passthrough (and which devices)
+ - Restrict or audit operations performed by privileged domains
+ - Prevent a privileged domain from arbitrarily mapping pages from other
+ domains.
+
+You can find more details on how to use FLASK and an example security
+policy here: L<http://xenbits.xen.org/docs/unstable/misc/xsm-flask.txt>
