Features
- Sandboxing: Firejail allows users to run applications in isolated environments, preventing them from accessing sensitive files and system resources.
- SELinux Integration: It integrates with SELinux (Security-Enhanced Linux) to provide robust security policies.
- Resource Limitation: Firejail can limit the resources (CPU, memory, etc.) that a sandboxed application can use.
- Network Isolation: It can restrict network access for sandboxed applications, enhancing security against network-based attacks.
- Filesystem Access Control: Firejail provides fine-grained control over which files and directories an application can access.
