The features of SE-PostgreSQL ----------------------------- Security-Enhanced PostgreSQL (SE-PostgreSQL) is a security extension built in PostgreSQL, to provide system-wide consistency in access controls. It enables to apply a single unigied security policy of SELinux for both operating system and database management system. In addition, it also provides fine-grained mandatory access which includes column-/row- level non-bypassable access control even if privileged database users. These features enables to deploy SE-PostgreSQL into data flow control scheme integrated with operating system, to protect our information asset from threats like leaking, manupulation and so on. http://code.google.com/p/sepgsql/wiki/WhatIsSEPostgreSQL Thanks, -- KaiGai Kohei -- This message was distributed to subscribers of the selinux mailing list.
