NOTE: Some profiles have multiple versions listed, depending on which version of the OVAL specification you're interested in analyzing. If unsure, just select the newest version (typically, you don't need more than one version of each profile). This process could take anywhere from 5 to 90 minutes, depending on the load on the server and the number of profiles selected. For evaluation or demonstration purposes, we recommend you initially select only one or two profiles. |
- Click the Import Profiles button to start the import process.
