Henry, 

With SELinux you can confine the root user and enable the secure_mode_policyload boolean. 

Kind Regards,

The setenforce command switches SELinux temporarily.  To make it persist, change the /etc/selinux/config file and reboot.

Mike,

setenforce can change mode. See:

root@ctx0700:~# cat /etc/selinux/config
# This file controls the state of SELinux on the system.
# SELINUX= can take one of these three values:
#     enforcing - SELinux security policy is enforced.
#     permissive - SELinux prints warnings instead of enforcing.
#     disabled - No SELinux policy is loaded.
SELINUX=enforcing

Henry,

You can edit /etc/selinux/config to state SELINUX=enforcing

When you reboot, your system will be enforcing SELinux policies and it will persist.  I'm also including a link to Red Hat documentation regarding this topic.

Hi folks,

setenforce allows users to swap selinux mode between enforcing and permissive. 
If I want my selinux to stay in enforcing mode forever so that nobody is able to interfere with my selinux.

What should I do?

Thanks.
