What changed
A coherent set of protection-design criteria became available for system designers.
Scientific scope
Exact 1975 two-author tutorial; prior principles, Multics implementations and later security practice separate.
Evidence
The linked sources identify this contribution and its scope. WRS has not independently reconstructed the scientific claims. The record is the exact two-author 1975 invited tutorial paper and the principles it states. Earlier individual suggestions acknowledged in the paper, Multics implementations, later security taxonomies and modern secure-development practice remain separate.
