What is Security-enhanced Linux?

SELinux Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Security-enhanced Linux (SELinux) was originally developed as a research prototype of the Linux® kernel and a number of utilities with enhanced security functionality designed to demonstrate the value of mandatory access controls to the Linux community and how such controls could be added to Linux. Today SELinux is integrated into the mainline Linux 2.6 kernel series and several Linux distributions.

Can I install Security-enhanced Linux on an existing Linux system?

SELinux Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Yes, you can install just the SELinux modifications on an existing Linux system or you can install a Linux distribution that already includes SELinux support. SELinux consists of a SELinux-enabled Linux kernel, a core set of libraries and utilities, some modified userland packages, and a policy configuration. To install it on an existing Linux system that lacks SELinux support, you must have the ability to compile the software and also have other necessary system packages.

SELinux Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Will Security-enhanced Linux be evaluated by the CCEVS?

SELinux Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
By itself, security-enhanced Linux is not designed to address a complete set of security concerns as represented by a protection profile. Although it would be possible to evaluate its current functionality alone, we believe such an evaluation would have limited value. However, we have worked with others to incorporate this technology into Linux distributions that have been evaluated and distributions that are in evaluation.
Related Questions

What does Security-enhanced Linux give me that standard Linux can't?

SELinux Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
The Security-enhanced Linux kernel enforces mandatory access control policies that confine user programs and system servers to the minimum amount of privilege they require to do their jobs. When confined in this way, the ability of these user programs and system daemons to cause harm when compromised (via buffer overflows or misconfigurations, for example) is reduced or eliminated. This confinement mechanism operates independently of the traditional Linux access control mechanisms.
