| The importing of the SCAP profiles is a time-consuming process and 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. |
|
| Column |

| | Info |

| 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). |

Next Steps
- Once the profiles have been imported, the Common Platform Enumeration (CPE) Analysis Policy must be run on the managed computers to determine which computers meet the requirements for the profiles imported. By default, this task is run on the Daily schedule (nightly at 2:00 AM). If you would like to hurry this process along, visit the Common Platform Enumeration (CPE) Analysis Policy on the Policies tab under the Security Analysis folder and alter the schedule to suit your needs. This only needs to run once new profiles have been initially imported and whenever any new computers come in to be managed. For more information, see Targeting Managed Computers.
