Which SELinux mode is recommended?

Recommended modes:

  • Permissive — for initial setup and debugging;
  • Enforcing — after policies are properly configured.

Reasoning:

  • Suricata, Redis, and custom services require correctly defined rules;
  • the project intentionally does not impose automatic SELinux policies.

In production:

  • Enforcing + custom policies is the correct approach;
  • Permissive is acceptable in isolated or closed environments.
