Why Manual Server Hardening Fails

Security auditors don't wait. Every week without hardened Linux servers is a week of audit risk, compliance debt, and potential breach exposure.

Days of manual work

Applying 234 CIS Benchmark controls by hand takes 2-5 days per server. Manual Linux hardening doesn't scale to 50 hosts across multiple distributions.

No compliance visibility

You don't know your current security compliance score until the auditor tells you — usually at the worst possible time. No continuous monitoring means no early warning.

Configuration drift

Servers pass the security audit on day 1, drift by day 30. OS updates, new packages, and team changes silently undo your hardening work.

No automated audit trail

Auditors want machine-readable proof of compliance. Screenshots and manual logs don't cut it for SOC 2, PCI DSS, or ISO 27001 certification.

Linux Security Hardening Features

Six core capabilities for compliance automation — from agentless security scanning to automated remediation and continuous monitoring.

01 / SCAN

CIS Benchmark Compliance Scanning

Run CIS Level 1 or Level 2 scans against any supported Linux server. OS auto-detected — correct security profile selected automatically. Produces XCCDF + OVAL machine-readable evidence for auditors and compliance teams.

OpenSCAP CIS STIG OVAL
02 / VULNERABILITIES

Vulnerability Scanning

Detect known vulnerabilities across your server fleet with Vuls scanner. Continuous CVE database integration with automatic FSTEC BDU sync for Russian regulatory compliance. Prioritize patching by severity.

03 / HARDEN

Automated Server Hardening

ComplianceAsCode Ansible roles for Linux hardening applied automatically. OS auto-detected, correct hardening role selected. Preview all changes before applying with dry-run mode — no surprises in production.

04 / REMEDIATE

Security Remediation Workflow

Generate fix scripts from compliance scan results. Approval workflow before execution — no changes applied to servers without review. Track remediation status per host and per CIS rule.

Script generation Approval Tracking
05 / SCHEDULE

Compliance Scheduling and Reports

Cron-based scan automation for continuous compliance monitoring — set it and forget it. Export security audit reports in HTML, PDF, CSV, JSON. Full audit logs for compliance evidence and regulatory requirements.

06 / DASHBOARD

Centralized Security Dashboard

Web UI for managing mixed-distro Linux server fleets — manage all hosts from one place, schedule recurring security scans, track compliance score trends per OS family, set configuration drift alerts.

Web UI Multi-host Drift alerts

AI-Powered Compliance Automation

Built-in AI assistant with multi-provider LLM support for security compliance. Analyze hardening gaps, generate remediation tasks, assess CIS Benchmark rule coverage automatically.

AI ASSISTANT

Security Chat

Chat interface for security compliance questions. Context-aware analysis of your hardening data — ask about specific hosts, CIS rules, vulnerability trends, or remediation status.

COVERAGE ANALYSIS

CIS Gap Detection

AI analyzes which CIS Benchmark rules are covered by your current server configuration and identifies security gaps. Prioritize Linux hardening efforts by actual risk and compliance impact.

How Automated Linux Hardening Works

Deploy from cloud marketplace, scan your server infrastructure, remediate automatically. Agentless security scanning — no complex setup, no installed agents.

01

Deploy from marketplace

Launch SecureBaseline from your cloud marketplace in one click. The control plane is up in under 10 minutes with a managed PostgreSQL backend.

02

Add your hosts

Register servers via the web UI or CLI. Connect via SSH — no agent installation required. Works with any reachable Linux host — cloud or on-prem.

03

Scan, harden, repeat

Run a compliance scan, review the report, apply remediations. Schedule weekly scans to catch drift. Export audit evidence on demand.
