Sr No.	Multilevel Security(MLS)	Multilateral Security
1.	Multilevel security concepts originate from military and other hierarchical organizations where confidentiality or security levels are used for security decisions.	Multilateral security concepts define security policies according to rule sets. They can express security rules between individuals or roles along the same "level".
2.	Multi-level security implements one of two goals: either confidentiality or integrity. Its name is derived from various levels of privileges needed by subjects to access data.	Multilateral security is concerned with the implementation of security between various actors (users, computer systems, processes) that might very well be on the same MLS clearance level.
3.	MLS is a long established and well-researched security concept that was developed for public and military administration and their confidentiality needs.	The goals of multilateral security can be complex and very different from each other.
4.	Its basic assumption is that there are security levels from "public" to "top secret" that are assigned to documents or data sets.	Thus, multilateral security is sometimes referred to as "policy-based security".
5.	Access to documents is only allowed for users, programs or computer systems that have at least the same or higher security clearance than the object that is being accessed.	Multilateral security models the relationships of computer systems to each other with respect to security issues.
