## Compliance Evidence Collection
|
|
|
|
### Automated Compliance Checks
|
|
|
|
Use OpenSCAP for automated compliance scanning:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
# Install OpenSCAP
|
|
apt-get install libopenscap8 # Debian/Ubuntu
|
|
dnf install openscap-scanner # RHEL/AlmaLinux
|
|
|
|
# Run CIS benchmark scan
|
|
oscap xccdf eval \
|
|
--profile xccdf_org.ssgproject.content_profile_cis \
|
|
--results results.xml \
|
|
--report report.html \
|
|
/usr/share/xml/scap/ssg/content/ssg-*.xml
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Manual Compliance Verification
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
# SELinux status
|
|
getenforce
|
|
|
|
# AppArmor status
|
|
aa-status
|
|
|
|
# Firewall status
|
|
ufw status verbose # Debian/Ubuntu
|
|
firewall-cmd --list-all # RHEL
|
|
|
|
# SSH configuration
|
|
sshd -T | grep -E "(PermitRootLogin|PasswordAuthentication|GSSAPIAuthentication)"
|
|
|
|
# Audit daemon status
|
|
systemctl status auditd
|
|
auditctl -l
|
|
|
|
# Automatic updates
|
|
systemctl status unattended-upgrades # Debian/Ubuntu
|
|
systemctl status dnf-automatic.timer # RHEL
|
|
```
