Towards Intuitive Tools for Managing SELinux: Hiding the Details but Retaining the Power
نویسندگان
چکیده
The details of the SELinux access control mechanisms lead to the perception that SELinux is too complex for non-expert users to manage. We present techniques that bridge the gap between the comprehensive, low-level SELinux access controls and the intuitive, high-level abstractions familiar to system administrators. These techniques shield the user from SELinux implementation details without sacrificing the power and flexibility of the SELinux policy language.

Characterising the Use of Encapsulation in Object Oriented Systems
Software is commonly very large and complex, and consequently hard to develop, understand and maintain. Encapsulation is the practice of breaking a system up into well-defined pieces and hiding internal details within each piece. It supports modularisation and information hiding, making it one of the most fundamental tools software developers have for managing complexity. Object oriented design...

متن کاملReview of Existing Analysis Tools for SELinux Security Policies: Challenges and a Proposed Solution
Access control policy management is an increasingly hard problem from both the security point of view and the verification point of view. SELinux is a Linux Security Module (LSM) implementing a mandatory access control mechanism. SELinux integrates user identity, roles, and type security attributes for stating rules in security policies. As SELinux policies are developed and maintained by secur...
