○      3.3,3.5,3.6,3.12,6.2 – Updated the query logic

●      Both analysis and remediation checks are included

●      The Environment Setup task utilizes atomic result refreshes,
ensuring that existing results remain available until new results are
generated. Results now also include a collection timestamp for better
tracking and auditability.

●      The Applicability Fixlet includes additional validation, ensuring
that the Environment Setup Task log file exists, is not older than 90 days,
and that results of files are present. This ensures Fixlets are reported as
Not Applicable, and that the Measured Value (MV) correctly indicates that
the Environment Setup Task has not been executed.

●      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.
