Ubuntu 20.04 CIS STIG

Build Status Ansible Role

This role is based on 18.04 migration. The tasks are correct in content, but have to be re-sorted to fit the 20.04 Benchmark. Contribution welcome.

Configure Ubuntu 20.04 machine to be CIS compliant. Level 1 and 2 findings will be corrected by default.

This role will make changes to the system that could break things. This is not an auditing tool but rather a remediation tool to be used after an audit has been conducted.

Based on CIS Ubuntu Linux 20.04 LTS Benchmark - v1.0.0 - 07-21-2020 .

IMPORTANT INSTALL STEP

If you want to install this via the ansible-galaxy command you'll need to run it like this:

ansible-galaxy install -p roles -r requirements.yml

With this in the file requirements.yml:

- src: https://github.com/florianutz/ubuntu2004_cis.git

Example Playbook

You can find an example playbook below. please read the documentation anyway and check the settings for your case. For example, the default settings uninstall the X server!

- name: Harden Server
  hosts: servers
  become: yes

  roles:
    - ubuntu2004_cis

To run the tasks in this repository, first create this file one level above the repository (i.e. the playbook .yml and the directory ubuntu2004_cis should be next to each other), then review the file defaults/main.yml and disable any rule/section you do not wish to execute.

Assuming you named the file site.yml, run it with:

ansible-playbook site.yml

Requirements

You should carefully read through the tasks to make sure these changes will not break your systems before running this playbook.
