● Both analysis and remediation checks are included<br>
● 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.<br>
Improved few checks by adding the pending restart feature to them. The pending
restart feature works in the following ways:<br>
● The action results will show “Pending Restart” instead of “Fixed” for those
checks which requires OS reboot.<br>
● The check will show relevant for those endpoints until they are rebooted.<br>
● Post reboot of the endpoint the action results will show as “Fixed” and the
check will be compliant.</span></p>
