- ensure AppArmor is not disabled in /etc/default/grub if using Ubuntu kernels, or if using non-Ubuntu kernels, that /etc/default/grub has apparmor=1 security=apparmor.
- ensuring that the apparmor package is installed.
What is difference between SELinux mode permissive vs enforcing?
SELinux operates on the principle of default denial: Anything not explicitly allowed is denied. SELinux can operate in two global modes: Permissive mode, in which permission denials are logged but not enforced. Enforcing mode, in which permissions denials are both logged and enforced.
What’s the difference between AppArmor and SELinux access control?
A strike against this security system is that its very difficult to independently verify. AppArmor (and SMACK) is very straight forward. The profiles can be hand written by humans, or generated using aa-logprof. AppArmor uses path based control, making the system more transparent so it can be independently verified.

Which is better SELinux or AppArmor for container isolation?
To summarize, SELinux is a more complex technology that controls more operations on a system and separates containers by default. This level of control is not possible with AppArmor because it lacks MCS. In addition, not having MLS means that AppArmor cannot be used in highly secure environments.

Is there a comparative usability study between SELinux and AA?
The only comparative usability study on AA and SELinux is researchrepository.murdoch.edu.au/6177/1/…and it’s not without drawbacks (not a population representative of sysadms or CISOs, and applying MAC to programs for which it was never intended). For the context being studied both AA and SELinux are insufficient, and that comes as no surprise.
