The Ubuntu operating system must deploy Endpoint Security for Linux Threat Prevention (ENSLTP).


Overview

Finding ID Version Rule ID IA Controls Severity
V-219159 UBTU-18-010021 SV-219159r508662_rule Medium
Description
Without the use of automated mechanisms to scan for security flaws on a continuous and/or periodic basis, the operating system or other system components may remain vulnerable to the exploits presented by undetected software flaws. To support this requirement, the Ubuntu operating system may have an integrated solution incorporating continuous scanning using HBSS and periodic scanning using other tools, as specified in the requirement.
