Biba Low-Watermark is here pretty interesting, since it requires a bit less
setup. Linux supports that with Lomac. 

Looks like IBM is researching on some SELinux based hybrid models which they
call SLIM (with TPM hardware support):

However looks like lomac is kind of postponed, since nobody is funding LSM
work. However it is part of FreeBSD current.
