It's a set of patches against FreeBSD which adds some features which can be used to configure a more tightly controlled system. It's under a fairly scary license though, and last time I checked the documentation didn't list many "whiz-bang" features I would personally find useful on an average system. That's just my personal opinion though, not any official position of the security officer or of FreeBSD, and may not in fact reflect reality if the documentation is inaccurate (someone told me there's more there which is, or was, undocumented). YMMV, of course..it's worth taking a look at to see whether it would be useful for you.
