SELinux Policy

SELinux (Security-Enhanced Linux) Policy is a set of rules that controls how different programs and users can access files, network resources, and system functions on a Linux system. It's like a security guard that enforces strict permissions, ensuring each process operates only within its designated limits. This helps prevent malicious or accidental harm, such as unauthorized data access or system compromise. The policy defines these restrictions in a structured way, enhancing the overall security of the system by reducing vulnerabilities and containing potential breaches.
