Manually set desired compliance

If you don't want to use the benchmark and profile that Security Compliance Management assigns automatically to your node, you can set the benchmark and profile that you prefer from the Inventory page.

  1. On the Inventory page of SCM, click the node for which you want to specify desired compliance.

    In the Information window that appears on the right, you can see facts about the node and whether desired compliance has been set.

  2. Choose the CIS Benchmark and profile that you want to assign to the node using the drop-down menus.

    The benchmark and profile you set here is the desired compliance option for future scans.

    If you have created a custom profile, you can set it as the desired compliance by clicking Use an associated custom profile?

  3. Click Update.
What to do next
Now that you have applied desired compliance, you can run scans based on your selection.
