# CIS Benchmark Ansible Script

This repository contains an Ansible script designed to automate the application of CIS benchmarks for various Linux flavors. The script applies Level 1 and Level 2 benchmarks separately, ensuring your systems adhere to security best practices.

## Features

- Automates CIS benchmark application for Linux servers.
- Supports both cloud and on-premises environments.
- Separate application of Level 1 and Level 2 benchmarks.

## Getting Started

### Prerequisites

- Ansible installed on your local machine.
- Access to the target servers with sufficient permissions to apply security changes.
- Knowledge of the CIS benchmarks and their implications for your environment.

### Usage

1. **Clone the Repository:**

   ```bash
   git clone https://github.com/vireshsolanki/cis-benchmark-ansible.git
   cd cis-benchmark-ansible

Important Considerations

• Cloud vs. On-Premises:

  • The script is optimized for on-premises servers but may affect cloud resources differently. Changes could potentially disrupt or break certain packages. Be sure to review and test thoroughly after application.
  • Restart the server if necessary to apply changes fully.

• Post-Application:

  • Review your system's functionality after applying the benchmarks. Ensure that all services are running correctly and no unintended changes have occurred.

Reporting Issues

If you encounter any issues with the script, please raise an issue on the GitHub Issues page. We will provide support and work on resolving any problems you may face.

Future Updates

We are working on creating scripts for other operating systems and will update this repository accordingly. Stay tuned for more updates.
