Assessments Application - Security Hardening

We can also assess for security hardening opportunities. So this is an assessment against our Cisco operating system hardening guides. So these are pulled from cisco.com as documentation all parsed out into rules for you. As we update the best practices for security hardening on cisco.com, these rules will automatically update.00:07So that you don't have to manage security hardening best practices in the configuration management system and you can easily understand when you've got some devices that have opportunities to be hardened from a specific security best practice. Again, I can drill into one of these devices, maybe let's do this one for minimum password length.00:26And I can see some information about the security assessment, and then with the finding, I can see some specific evidence around this device not having a password length enforcement that is eight characters or higher. And then I can also see a recommendation around how to go and move this to compliant state, so again offering me the configuration that I need to apply to go move this to conform.00:42
