Centos 7.3 scap

Post by z080236 » 2018/04/12 12:31:09

In 7.3 there is a Security Option in the installation step:

These are the options:
-Default
- Standard System Security Profile
- PCI-DSS v3 Control Baseline for Centos Linux 7
-C2S for Centos Linux 7

If I select one of this profile, does it mean the security baselines have been implemented in the Centos?

If not implemented, how do I implement it?


I am looking to implement server hardening close to CIS Benchmark.

I don't have answers to your questions but don't use 7.3 as it's old and out of date. 7.4 is current for the next week or 3 as RHEL 7.5 was released 2 days ago upstream and is already rebuilding for CentOS.
The future appears to be RHEL or Debian. I think I'm going Debian.

CentOS 5 and 6 are deadest, do not use them.

reason I am unable to use 7.4 is that the my copper network interface has problems with the kernel in 7.4.

We tried using 3.1.0.123, interface has no issues on reboot

using 3.1.0.693 , interface disappears on reboot.

It can be seen reported in rhel 7.4, since centos comes from rhel, it will have the same issue.
