    Hello everyone,

    Is anyone aware of any security baseline assessment tools like the ones
    provided by the Center for Internet Security? We are researching the
    possibility of using a "Baseline Compliance" metric, so the tools will need
    to be mostly automated (no manual checklists - we have enough of those!)

    Thanks for any and all help!

    Moderator: I know this barely qualifies as penetration testing, but the mod for Security Management kicked it back because it will start a discussion of technical tools. Please help me out! :)
