It sought to address the increasing use of mobile devices What is SELinux? SE Android originated with the (US) National Security Agency, an intelligence agency responsible for protecting US government communications systems. As we know Linux itself is based on discretionary access control, now with SElinux there is a mandatory access control layer within the kernel that along with DAC can provide rock solid security, I am going to be demonstrating the power of SElinux but first some theory on how it works. It is a security enhancement to the Linux kernel that gives admins, and users, more features for access control, for example what resources can be accessed by particular applications or users. The httpd processes execute with the httpd_t SELinux type. Security-Enhanced Linux (SELinux) is on this example I will be creating a simple samba share that should be able to access from any client within my network. Now that SELinux is included in the Linux 2.6 kernel–and delivered by default in Fedora Core, Red Hat Enterprise Linux, and other major distributions–it's easier than ever to take advantage of its benefits.
