WHEN: Wednesday, November 2nd, 2016 7pm-9pm MAIN PRESENTATION TOPIC: Mandatory Access Control and AppArmor PRESENTED BY: Sarah Newman Software Engineer, prgmr.com, Inc. TOPIC SUMMARY: Do you have a program that's phoning home when you don't want it to? Are you afraid you might accidentally make a file public, but can't use file permissions to hide it? Come learn how mandatory access control can help with these and other problems. In addition to a brief overview of mandatory access control, this presentation will discuss one particular implementation, AppArmor, in detail. AppArmor is enabled by default in Ubuntu Linux and SUSE, but can (in theory) be built and used on any Linux system with a 2.6.36 kernel or newer. ABOUT THE PRESENTER: MORE ABOUT THE SPEAKER: Sarah Newman (http://prgmr.com/~srn/) is a software engineer helping with all aspects of keeping prgmr.com, Inc. alive and running, who has been active for many years in SVLUG.
