sestatus [-v] [-b]

the example:

Policy deny_unknown status: allow
Memory protection checking: actual (secure)
Max kernel policy version: 26

- The security context of files and processes listed in the
/etc/sestatus.conf file. The format of this file is
described in sestatus.conf(5).
- The status of booleans.
-v

/etc/sestatus.conf file. It also checks whether the file is a

also shown.

The current process context
The init process context
The controlling terminal file context
-b
