>Description</H2
><P
> <TT
CLASS="COMMAND"
>SECURITY LABEL</TT
> applies a security label to a database
object. An arbitrary number of security labels, one per label provider, can
be associated with a given database object. Label providers are loadable
modules which register themselves by using the function
<CODE
CLASS="FUNCTION"
>register_label_provider</CODE
>.
</P
><DIV
CLASS="NOTE"
><BLOCKQUOTE
CLASS="NOTE"
><P
><B
>Note: </B
> <CODE
CLASS="FUNCTION"
>register_label_provider</CODE
> is not an SQL function; it can
only be called from C code loaded into the backend.
</P
></BLOCKQUOTE
></DIV
><P
> The label provider determines whether a given label is valid and whether
it is permissible to assign that label to a given object. The meaning of a
given label is likewise at the discretion of the label provider.
<SPAN
CLASS="PRODUCTNAME"
>PostgreSQL</SPAN
> places no restrictions on whether or how a
label provider must interpret security labels; it merely provides a
mechanism for storing them. In practice, this facility is intended to allow
integration with label-based mandatory access control (MAC) systems such as
<SPAN
CLASS="PRODUCTNAME"
>SE-Linux</SPAN
>. Such systems make all access control decisions
based on object labels, rather than traditional discretionary access control
(DAC) concepts such as users and groups.
