Know your compliance posture before the auditor does.
oxharden scores Linux hosts against CIS and DISA STIG with expected-vs-actual evidence for every rule. See what passes, what drifted, and which hosts need work — before the audit becomes a fire drill.
Compliance posture
Org baseline · CIS RHEL 9 · Level 1 · 347 hosts · last scan 4m ago
Point-in-time compliance is a fire drill.
Most teams scramble before an audit: screenshotting configs, reconciling spreadsheets, and hoping nothing drifted since the last review. Then the fleet changes the next day. Compliance is not a date on the calendar — it is a state your systems are in or out of right now.
Manual evidence
Screenshots and spreadsheets go stale the moment they are saved.
Silent drift
A passing host can fail tomorrow after a config change, package update, or reboot.
No single source
Findings spread across tools rarely show the per-rule proof an auditor or engineer needs.
Every rule needs proof:
expected, actual, pass or fail.
Continuous scoring
Evaluate Linux hosts against CIS and DISA STIG baselines on schedule, on demand, and after policy changes. Your score reflects the fleet now, not last quarter.
Expected vs actual
For every rule, oxharden shows what the baseline requires, what the host actually reported, and why it passed or failed.
Trend over time
Watch posture improve, catch drift, and see score movement over time.
Per-host detail
Drill from a fleet score to the exact host, rule, evidence, and remediation guidance.
# the baseline requires kernel command line contains fips=1
What CIS RHEL 9 Level 1 requires for this rule to pass.
# what the host reported $ cat /proc/cmdline BOOT_IMAGE=… ro crashkernel=1G fips=1 — not present
Collected read-only from the host. fips=1 is missing, so the rule fails.
Built for the frameworks you are held to.
Continuous CIS Benchmark scoring across supported Linux distributions.
CIS · Level 1 / 2STIG rules evaluated with expected-vs-actual evidence, built for teams that need defensible Linux hardening posture.
DISA STIG · RHEL 9Configuration and exposure evidence that supports PCI control workflows.
PCI-DSS v4.0oxharden does not make you compliant by itself. It provides the Linux host evidence those programs ask for.
Compliance gaps, CVEs, and exposed services belong on the same host record.
oxharden collects host state once and uses it across compliance, vulnerability, and exposure views. A failed hardening rule, an exploited CVE, and an internet-reachable service should not live in three unrelated tools.
Designed for regulated Linux environments.
Read-only
The agent evaluates and reports. It does not change your servers during assessment.
Least-privilege design
Collects the host state needed for inventory, vulnerability, exposure, and compliance evaluation.
Enterprise deployment
Enterprise deployment models can be scoped for offline, self-hosted, or regulated-environment requirements.
Fast rollout
Deploy with curl, dnf, or automation. First compliance posture appears in minutes after enrollment and scan.
