Hi all:

We had a change of schedule. Martin Leach's talk on "What does a CIO
do anyway?" has been postponed due to a schedule conflict.

However we are happy to present:

   A fresh look at SELinux and what it is complaining about.

by Daniel Walsh. 

  The Four main causes of SELinux problems.

    Labeling Problems
    SELinux has to know how you configured your processes
    Bug in Policy or an Application.
    Your machine has been compromised.

Daniel Walsh has worked in the computer security field for almost 30
years. Dan joined Red Hat in August 2001. He has led the SELinux
project, concentrating on the application space and policy
development. Dan helped developed sVirt, Secure Virtualization. He
also created the SELinux Sandbox, the Xguest user and the Secure
Kiosk. Previously, Dan worked Netect/Bindview's HackerShield and
BVControl for Unix, Vulnerability Assessment Products. Dan worked for
Digital Equipment Corporation on the Athena Project along with
designing and developing the AltaVista Firewall and AltaVista Tunnel
(VPN) Products. Dan has a BA in Mathematics from the College of the
Holy Cross and a MS in Computer Science from Worcester Polytechnic
Institute.

Location: MIT E-51, Room 145
Date: Wednesday, April 11, 2012 7PM

So come and join us to discuss something we all know we should be
running. Hopefully this talk will let you get those policies
straightened out so you can run SE Linux as it was intended.

I look forward to seeing you there.
