[BESAdmin-Announcements] BigFix Compliance Updated DISA STIG Checklist for Canonical Ubuntu 18.04 LTS Server, published 2025-02-28

[Announcements for BES Administrators]

*Product: * BigFix Compliance


*Title: * Updated DISA Checklist for Ubuntu 18.04.


*Security Benchmark: * DISA Canonical Ubuntu 18.04 LTS STIG SCAP Benchmark,
v2r15


*Published Sites: * DISA STIG Checklist for Canonical Ubuntu 18.04 LTS,
site version 9
 (The site version is provided for air-gap customers.)

*Details:*

●       Support for the latest version of DISA benchmark V2R15.

*Actions to take:*

·        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 a 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 require 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.
