[Announcements for BES Administrators]

*Product:*
BigFix Compliance



*Title:*
Updated CIS Checklist for MacOS 12



*Security Benchmark:*
CIS Apple MacOS 12.0 Monterey Benchmark V3.0.0



*Published Sites:*
CIS Checklist for MacOS 12, site version 6
(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.

·      We have revamped the architecture of this checklist. Below are the
changes:

o   Replaced “Deploy and Run” with “Environmental setup task”

o   Changed the folder structures on the endpoint related to BigFix
scanning.

o   Removed the “Filesystem Scan” options during “Environmental Setup Task”
as there are no rules specifically using it.

*Actions to take:*

   - To subscribe to the above site, you can use the License Overview
   Dashboard to enable and gather the site. Note that you must be entitled to
   the BigFix Compliance product, and you must be using BigFix version 9.5 and
   later.
   - If you use custom sites, then you cannot use the existing custom site
   anymore. Since, the architecture has been revamped. Create a new custom
   site from the latest external site.
