*Security Benchmark:*
DISA STIG Checklist for Oracle Linux 8, V1R10

*Published Sites:*
DISA STIG Checklist for Oracle Linux 8, site version 7
(The site version is provided for air-gap customers.)

*Details:*

·       Both analysis and remediation checks are included

·       Some of the checks allow you to use the parameterized setting to
enable customization for compliance evaluation. Note that parameterization
and remediation actions require the creation of a custom site.
Improved few checks by adding the pending restart feature to them. The
pending restart feature works in the following ways:

·       The action results will show “Pending Restart” instead of “Fixed”
for those checks which requires OS reboot.

·       The check will show relevant for those endpoints until they are
rebooted.

·       Post reboot of the endpoint the action results will show as
“Fixed”, and the check will be compliant.
