I will be speaking on SELinux (Security-Enhanced Linux) and mandatory access controls. What is SELinux? What is LSM? What security benefits does one gain with SELinux? How do SELinux policies work? What are the limitations of SELinux? How does SELinux compare against other products? If time, a demonstration on how I can give out my root password and not fear anyone doing any damage.
