SELinux is the abbreviation for Security Enhanced Linux. The access controls for the users can be controlled using SELinux. For example, the users can be stopped from running the scripts and accessing their own home directories. SELinux has the capability to support the access control and security policies. It basically operates on three different modes:
- Enforcing –to enforce its policies.
- Permissive –Polices want to apply but will be locked in case of violation.
- Disabled –SELinux will stay in disabled mode.
To check the status of SELinux, just type: #getenfore OR sestatus
