Description
Discover how to create a highly secure Linux system with SELinux, an open-source security enhancement developed by the National Security Agency.
This comprehensive guide explains the key advances in security and demonstrates how to implement role-based access controls, mandatory access controls, and fine-grained transitions and privilege escalation. By isolating applications and preventing flaws from spreading, SELinux helps prevent common cyber threats.
While SELinux offers powerful security features, its administration requires a good understanding of the underlying principles and techniques. This book provides valuable insights into how to assign privileges, change policies, and log system activity, making it an invaluable resource for system administrators.
