Description

Unix and Linux systems can be checked for hardening gaps, configuration risks, and security-relevant settings. Administrators use it to produce audit findings and prioritize improvements on servers or workstations.

This git package may include newer audit checks before stable releases. Audit output can reveal system details, users, services, and weaknesses, so handle reports as sensitive information.
