SElinux is Security Enhanced Linux. It's a module built for the Linux kernel on mandatory access control. It Enhanced the Linux security policy at kernel level

It has two modes...Permissive n enforcing
In enforcing mode, all SElinux policies are enabled. SElinux denied access based on policy rules
But in Permissive mode, this policies are not enabled and access are not denied but just logged the denials which would be blocked if SElinux policy is enabled
