Mandatory Access Control: 1 control for Linux hardening

Pavois audits 1 control in the Mandatory Access Control hardening domain, across 4 systems and 4 standards (CIS, ANSSI BP-028, NIST 800-53, PCI DSS). Every control declares the evidence it gathers, its severity, its remediation and its standard references.

What does Pavois check in this domain?

effective runtime 1
Checked against the resolved running state (e.g. sshd -T, sysctl, systemctl show), catches drop-ins and Includes a file read would miss. Caveat: runtime ≠ persistence; a value correct now may not survive a reboot.

Which standards does this domain cover?

One effective-configuration check serves as evidence for several standards at once. The references below are the ones the corpus actually carries, never a claimed equivalence. how to read a standard mapping.
