Description-en: Confine services in a limited environment
Compartment was designed to allow safe execution of privileged and/or
untrusted executables and services. It can execute a process:
- Setting specific Linux capabilities
- Chrooting it to a certain location
- setting the user or group it will run with
- running a program before it is executed
These features can be used to minimize the risk of a trojanized or vulnerable
program/service.
