Expanded Use-Case Request OpenSCAP about product-demos HOT 6 CLOSED

No current plans around a OpenSCAP for Windows demo. Is OpenSCAP supported by anybody in Windows environments? I haven’t heard of OpenSCAP outside of RHEL.

from product-demos.

According to the OpenSCAP site, OpenSCAP is available on various Linux distributions, including Red Hat Enterprise Linux, Fedora and Ubuntu. Since version 1.3.0 OpenSCAP supports also Microsoft Windows.

Ah yeah. Nice. Honestly, it has never come up in windows conversations that I’ve had or heard from others so I’d be looking to the field to understand how popular OpenSCAP is in windows environments. It sounds like it might be a difficult narrative to push if it’s not already top of mind and there isn’t a major vendor supporting OpenSCAP on windows.

I'd say it isn't that OpenSCAP is brought up, but the idea of being able to run compliance scans from Ansible easily across both environments. OpenSCAP is the only tool I've been able to find that might provide that capability. This comes up a lot from Linux initial customers that are looking to expand into Windows and have the same concerns around compliance.

Good to know. I can look into it.

Thank you for open an issue. We have significantly changed the layout of github.com/ansible/product-demos and I think this is no longer an issue. Please re-open this issue after rebasing your fork and ensuring this is still an issue:

git remote add upstream https://github.com/ansible/product-demos.git
git pull --rebase upstream main

Sorry for the delay, we realize this repo has not been maintained well in some time and we are working to fix that.
