SELinux is a flexible Mandatory Access Control (MAC) system built into the
Linux Kernel. SELinux provides administrators with a comprehensive access
control mechanism that enables greater access granularity over the existing
Linux Discretionary Access Controls (DAC) and is present in many major Linux
distributions. This repository contains the sources for the SELinux utilities
and system libraries which allow for the configuration and management of an
SELinux-based system.
