    It can be but it takes a lot more effort.

    SELinux: high bar to entry but extremely power right away

    Apparmor: lower bar to entry but much harder to get advanced functionality and control

      Yea, but there are also some things AppArmor just can’t do. Although in my experience most aren’t as big of a deal. Things like saying “only processes of this type can bind to port X” for example and much more fine grained control of file or directory actions. Does AppArmor provide kernel module controls?

      They both have really bad documentation though :(
