SELinux was made by the NSA but it open source, anyone can review the
source code, this is part of what makes open source software reliable, it
gets seen by many eyes, and even if you don’t review every line of code
yourself you have a web of trust that someone has reviewed it, and it is
strengthened by key signing which is more common in the Debian community.
Thank you.
