Why this program matters

  • Without expert mastery of permissions and SELinux on RHEL, companies expose themselves to massive data leaks and critical outages.

  • A single bad SELinux configuration can trigger 4 to 8 hours of downtime per incident, at an average cost of 300,000 euros.

  • Access-right violations appear in 35% of reported security incidents, generating technical debt and costly compliance audits.

  • Maintaining outdated policies multiplies zero-day exploit risks and jeopardizes ISO 27001 certification.

Red Hat RHEL training objectives

  • Configure advanced users and groups with quotas and centralized mappings
  • Manage POSIX permissions and extended ACLs for multi-user environments
  • Implement strict SELinux policies in enforcing mode
  • Create custom SELinux modules tailored to business applications
  • Automate audits and context corrections with Red Hat tools
  • Troubleshoot complex permission and SELinux confinement incidents

Red Hat RHEL curriculum: 5 modules over 5 days

Module 1 : Advanced user and group management: LDAP integration and quotas (tools id, usermod, setquota)

Participants explore the creation and management of complex identities in RHEL, including NIS and LDAP mappings, project-based disk quotas, and rights delegation via sudoers. Practical work focuses on production scenarios with several hundred users, followed by deliverables of automated provisioning scripts.

Module 2 : Permissions and ACLs: securing file systems (tools getfacl, setfacl, chmod)

The day details umask masks, default ACLs, and extended rights on XFS and ext4. Learners apply granular rules on shared directory trees, perform audits with getfacl, and correct violations in real conditions, delivering a repository of best practices.

Module 3 : SELinux principles and enforcement modes (tools getenforce, setenforce, semanage)

Trainees master SELinux contexts, types, and roles, switch between permissive and enforcing modes, and analyze denials with audit2why. Concrete cases of containerized applications and web services allow adjusting booleans and generating compliance reports.

Module 4 : Creation of custom SELinux modules (tools audit2allow, checkmodule, semodule)

Participants design and compile specific modules for internal applications, test domain transitions, and integrate policies into Satellite. Practical work results in a set of versioned modules deployable on multiple nodes.

Module 5 : SELinux troubleshooting and automation (tools restorecon, sealert, Ansible)

The final day covers incident analysis, context restoration, and orchestration via Ansible Automation Platform. Learners handle failing production scenarios, produce remediation playbooks, and deliver a continuous monitoring plan.

Our method

How Learni guarantees the quality of your Red Hat RHEL training

Before, during, after: we frame the brief, introduce the trainer, tailor the content and measure impact. You stay in control from kickoff to wrap-up.

Step 1

Rigorous trainer selection

Each trainer is validated on three criteria: hands-on field expertise, proven pedagogy and alignment with your industry.

  • Triple validation: technical, pedagogical, sectoral.
  • Minimum rating 4.8/5 over the last 12 sessions.
Step 2

You meet the trainer beforehand

30-minute video call between you and the selected trainer to validate the fit, adjust content and clear any final doubts.

  • Live briefing on goals and team context.
  • Veto right — we swap the trainer for free if needed.
Step 3

Content tailored to your context

No recycled slides. The syllabus is reworked from your real cases: tools, constraints, vocabulary, ongoing projects.

  • Hands-on cases drawn from your stack and projects.
  • Program co-written then validated by your team.
Step 4

Continuous quality follow-up

Live evaluations, 30/90/180-day check-ins and a consolidation plan. If the impact misses the mark, we rework it.

  • NPS, knowledge quizzes and skills self-assessment.
  • Satisfaction guarantee: fully satisfied or free rework.

A simple promise: you don't pay to discover the trainer on day one. Everything is validated upfront, by you.
