Free CompTIA Linux+ XK0-005 Practice Question
An administrator in your organization is concerned about performance issues and believes that Security-Enhanced Linux (SELinux) may be impacting the system's performance negatively. The admin has decided to completely disable SELinux to test this theory. After changing the SELinux mode to 'disabled' and rebooting the system, what long-term security implications should the administrator be made aware of?
The system will rely solely on traditional Unix/Linux permissions, leading to potential security vulnerabilities.
SELinux can be re-enabled without rebooting, thus no long-term security implications exist.
The system performance will improve without any negative security implications since file permissions and ACLs continue to protect the system.
SELinux will automatically re-enable after an update, minimizing long-term security risks.
