| Course Summary |
RHS429 introduces advanced system administrators, security administrators, and applications programmers to SELinux policy writing. Participants in this course will learn how SELinux works; how to manage SELinux; and how to write a SELinux policy. This class culminates in a major project to scope out and then write policies for previously unprotected services. |
RHS429 SELinux Policy Administration |
Goals : |
Among the most significant features of Red Hat Enterprise Linux is SELinux (Security Enhanced Linux), a powerful, kernel-level security layer that provides fine-grained control over what users and processes may access and execute on a system. By default, SELinux is enabled on Red Hat Enterprise Linux systems, enforcing a set of mandatory access controls that Red Hat calls the targeted policy. These access controls substantially enhance the security of the network services they target, but can sometimes affect the behavior of third-party applications and scripts that worked under previous versions of Red Hat Enterprise Linux. |
RHS429 provides a four day tutorial on SELinux and SELinux policy writing. The first day of the course provides a introduction to SELinux, how it operates within the Red Hat targeted policy, and the tools used to manipulate it. The class then will spend the remaining days learning how policies are written, compiled, and debugged. |
