When I read Gaurav Kamathe’s article Scan your Linux security with Lynis, it reminded me of my time as a systems administrator for the US Department of Labor. One of my duties was to keep our Unix servers hardened. Each quarter, an independent verifier came in to review our servers’ security status. Each time on the day the verifier was scheduled to arrive, I ran Security Readiness Review (SRR), a scanning tool that used a large set of scripts to identify and report any security findings.
