Chapter 8. Working with SELinux Policies

Until now, we have been working with an existing SELinux policy by tuning our system to deal with the proper SELinux contexts and assigning the right labels to files, directories, and even network ports. In this chapter, we will:

  • Manipulate conditional SELinux policy rules through booleans

  • Learn to create new custom SELinux policy modules

  • Develop user and application domains

  • Replace existing policies with new, custom ones

We'll end the chapter with a few examples of custom policies that augment our SELinux experience and fine-tune the policy to match the security requirements that the administrator has in mind.
