SELinux Security Issues: Critical Review

Session

Computer Science and Communication Engineering

Description

The decade of digitization and technology development has made computers an integral part of our lives and everyday life, hence making the computer security one of the most important subjects. The SELinux is a system-enforced access control that uses MAC (Mandatory Access Control) policy that combines three different policy models: (RBAC) Role based Access Control, (TE) Type Enforcement and (MLS) Multi Level Security. In this paper we are going make a critical review based on SELinux operating system security issues, especially how it is implemented through LSM (Linux Security Modules). Particularly we are going to focus on SELinux as a part of the LSM framework.
