Microsoft Security Compliance Toolkit (MSCT) is a set of tools that allows enterprise security administrators to download, analyze, test, edit, and store Microsoft-recommended security configuration baselines for Windows and other Microsoft products. Tenable creates MSCT audit files that perform a detailed configuration review for these benchmarks. When scanning assets utilizing the appropriate MSCT audit file, the organization is able to perform detailed configuration checks.
Tenable Vulnerability Management is able to perform a wide variety of platform and application audits based on the best practice consensus benchmarks developed by using these audit files. Additionally, compliance results have been broken down into four categories (Application, Computer, Cloud, and Network). This report contains chapters which display information on MSCT compliance benchmarks for all four categories.
Tenable provides several solutions for organizations to better understand vulnerability management. Security leaders need to SEE everything, PREDICT what matters most and ACT to address cyber risk and effectively align cybersecurity initiatives with business objectives. Tenable Vulnerability Management (formerly Tenable.io) discovers and analyzes assets continuously to provide an accurate and unified view of an organization's security posture. The requirements for this report are: Tenable Vulnerability Management.
