The subject of the research in this article is information protection mechanisms in the Astra Linux operating system, the goal is to present theoretical and practical – within the framework of an experiment – information about the possibilities of implementing information protection methods in the Astra Linux operating system. The scope of application of the results is domestic information systems designed for processing information with increased security requirements. To achieve the objectives, the authors provide a brief summary of the available methods and means of information security, and then study the features of the use of mandatory access control, closed software environment mode, and mandatory integrity control in the Astra Linux operating system using specific practical examples. Based on the results of the work, a conclusion was drawn about the effectiveness of the considered information security mechanisms and recommendations were given for software developers.
