Security-Enhanced Linux (SELinux) is a Linux feature that provides a mechanism for supporting access control security policies, including U.S. Department of Defense style mandatory access controls, through the use of Linux Security Modules (LSM) in the Linux kernel. It is not a Linux distribution, but rather a set of modifications that can be applied to Unix-like operating systems, such as Linux and BSD.

This talk will give an introduction and practical examples of use of SELinux (Security Enhanced Linux), giving the advantages in making the systems and services more secure by using free software and demystifying the idea that their use and management is complicated.

The original submission in Portuguese - "Essa palestra irá dar uma introdução e exemplos práticos de utilização do SELinux (Security Enhanced Linux), expondo as suas vantagens na tarefa de tornar os sistemas e serviços mais seguros usando software livre e desmitificando a idéia de que sua utilização e administração é complicada."
