CIS Checklist for Oracle MySQL Enterprise Edition 9.7 on Linux, site
version 1
(The site version is provided for air-gap customers)

*Details:*

   - Total Fixlets in Site: 66
   - Fixlets with Remediation: 16
   - Parameterized Fixlets: 12
   - This checklist supports multi-instance MySQL. It dynamically
   identifies all instances and writes results and logs to their respective
   folders.
   - It uses secure parameters for credentials and supports RHEL and OEL
   versions 8, 9, and 10.
   - 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 verifies that the Environment Setup Task log
   file exists, is not older than 90 days, and that the required result files
   are present. This ensures that Fixlets are reported as Not Applicable when
   the Environment Setup Task has not been executed, and that the Measured
   Value (MV) correctly reflects this condition.
   - 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.
