<p>A <b>computer security model</b> is a scheme for specifying and enforcing <a href="Security_policy" title="Security policy">security policies</a>. A security model may be founded upon a formal model of access rights, a model of computation, a model of <a href="Distributed_computing" title="Distributed computing">distributed computing</a>, or no particular theoretical grounding at all. A computer security model is implemented through a computer security policy.
