60.1. RHS427: Introduction to SELinux and Red Hat
Targeted Policy
http://www.redhat.com/training/security/courses/rhs427.html
1-day rapid intro to SELinux, how it operates within the Red Hat targeted policy, and the tools
available for working with this powerful capability. RHS427 constitutes the first day of RH429.

60.1.1. Audience

Computer security specialists and others responsible for implementing security policies on a Linux
computer. RHS429 requires RHCE or comparable knowledge.

60.1.2. Course Summary

Among the most significant features of Red Hat Enterprise Linux is SELinux (Security Enhanced
Linux), a powerful, kernel-level security layer that provides fine-grained control over what users and
processes may access and do on a system. By default, SELinux is enabled on Red Hat Enterprise
Linux systems, enforcing a set of mandatory access controls that Red Hat calls the targeted policy.
These access controls substantially enhance the security of the network services they target, but can
sometimes affect the behavior of third-party applications and scripts that worked on previous versions
of Red Hat Enterprise Linux.
60.2. RHS429: Red Hat Enterprise SELinux Policy
Administration
http://www.redhat.com/training/security/courses/rhs429.html
Among the most significant features of Red Hat Enterprise Linux is SELinux (Security Enhanced
Linux), a powerful, kernel-level security layer that provides fine-grained control over what users
and processes may access and execute on a system. RHS429 introduces advanced system
administrators, security administrators, and applications programmers to SELinux policy writing.
Participants in this course will learn how SELinux works; how to manage SELinux; and how to write an
SELinux policy.
