>>
>> Abstract:
>>
>> Over a decade ago researchers at the National Information Assurance
>> Research Lab at the NSA identified a need for flexible mandatory
>> access controls to help provide a solid foundation for secure systems.
>> This resulted in the development of the FLASK architecture, which has
>> seen implementation in a number of operating systems. The most
>> prominent implementation of FLASK is in the form of SELinux. Since the
>> early days of SELinux adoption much work as been done to improve the
>> utility and usability of SELinux. These enhancement have turned
>> SELinux from a prototype research implementation into a robust access
>> control mechanism that is used by a variety of customers world wide.
>>
>> This talk is a from the ground up journey through SELinux,. It starts
>> with why do we need this technology and then moves through where to
>> obtain it, how it works, and how to identify and solve problems
>> associated with SELinux. In addition to these basics the talk also
>> covers slightly more advanced topics such as how to construct policy
>> for new applications and how to address customizations particular to
>> your deployments.
