It still does, AFAIK.  At least on my 7.0-CURRENT installations
here, the security(7) manpage does.  It seems you remember back
when the securelevel documentation was in the init(8) manpage.
This changed a while ago, when the `securelevel' explanation was
moved from init(8) to security(7).

| Moved descriptions of securelevels from init(7) to security(7).

| Files used both "securelevel" and either "secure level" or
| "security level"; all are now "security level".
