Ansible Lockdown
Ansible Lockdown is a security baseline automation project sponsored by Mindpoint Group. It elaborates the resources, significance and objective of using the Automated Security Benchmark for auditing and remediation of system security. Our MPG Ansible Lockdown roles can be applied to systems to improve security posture, meet compliance requirements, and deploy without disruption after due diligence. Security hardening is achieved through the use of industry-recognized benchmarks CIS and DISA STIG, which provide open-source licensed configurations to bring systems into security compliance. The content delivered consists of an audit component based on GOSS that scans a host for compliance and a remediate component that can be run centrally using an Ansible Deployment Server to bring host(s) into compliance. The Ansible Lockdown is an open-source development/release process composes of MPG’s Ansible-Lockdown GitHub main/devel branches and ansible-galaxy updates that aligned with new benchmark versions.
