Implementation

SCAP

SCAP is a public specification that provides standardized and automated security configurations, and vulnerability assessments. SCAP comprises the following standards:

...

SAS embraces the SCAP standard and can import SCAP content into the Arellia Management Server and allows for the continuous monitoring of security configuration management issues that arise due to system vulnerability and misconfiguration on endpoints within an organization.

Through fully automated processes, users can define policies that enforce the assessment of tailored SCAP profiles on a scheduled basis, optionally followed by automated remediation to keep their managed computers compliant. The results of these assessments and remediation are all collected and stored in the CMDB, allowing for rich reporting, alerting and data exchange. All data imported and collected can be leveraged to precisely identify specific conditions and turned into actionable tasks, furthering configuration compliance.
