This is an attempt at checking off the list for auditing and remediating CIS Level 1 settings on an OS X installation. Some Level 2 sections are implemented as well, as they make sense in the two environments this has been used in. All Level 2 Scored coming soon. For now, the script defaults to Level 1.
There are some elements of Level 2 that I consider to be important. These elements have been deemed Level 1.5 by me. You can now select [-l|--level] [1, 1.5, 2]
when running the script. Defaults to Level 1.
- Level 1 attempts to include all Scored recommendations from the benchmark
- Level 1.5 includes all from Level 1, plus additional considerations from Level 2.
- Level 2 includes all from Level 1, plus attempts to include all Scored Level 2 recommendations.
Use at your own risk, please. There may be dragons. Certain aspects of this script can completely hose a perfectly good system. Test in your own environment on non-production equipment!
- 10.9 Mavericks file is mostly here just for posterity. Based off 1.0 benchmarks. Please don't use.
- 10.10 Yosemite is based off 1.2.0 benchmarks.
- 10.11 El Capitan is based off 1.1.0 benchmarks.
The benchmarks are available at the [Center for Internet Security] (https://benchmarks.cisecurity.org/)
To use this script on an already online and available system, download the appropriate benchmark.sh
file and then chmod +x
then run it ./benchmark.sh [-l|--level] [1, 1.5, 2]
The prefered method of running this is during a first boot after imaging. This has been tested with Casper v9+.
