I already have a section on Lynis. I will check out and add the other. Thanks!

So I got to looking, and I don't know if I want to copy everything from the benchmarks. The Debian one is 400 pages. Instead, I added a blurb about checking them. There is some overlap with what this guide has and what the CIS benchmarks have but I think both guides have some unique things worth checking. I'll be going through the benchmarks again and adding what I think makes the most sense to include in this guide.
