polscan
polscan (short for "Policy Scanner")
- Makes your DevOps server configuration/security/automation policies explicit
- Easily detects configuration drift (Puppet 2/3/4)
- Provides details on package updates (Debian, PHP, Gem, CVEs via debsecan)
- Provides basic security checks (SSH, NFS, sysctl)
- Explains policies by
- linking references
- having reasonable descriptions
- suggesting quick fixes
- referencing to security standards
- Agent less scanner with zero setup, no dependencies: Bash 4.2, SSH
- Scales up to at least 2000 hosts * 50 scanners ~ 100k findings
Policies are implemented by small shell snippets and thus polscan is easily extensible by your own specific policies. To make it easy to use it comes with host discovery solutions for typical automation setups (Chef, Puppet, MCollective).

Note: polscan is intentionally limited to Debian and for simplicity tries not to implement any distro-specific dependencies.
Running the Scanner
polscan keeps results on a daily basis so it makes sense to set up a daily cron.
Or just run it from the source directory
./polscan # To re-scan all hosts
./polscan -l 'server1 server2' # To scan specific hosts
./polscan -t systemd-no-failed.sh # Test scanner on all hosts
./polscan -t systemd-no-failed.sh -l server1 # Test scanner on single host
./polscan -t all -l server1 # Test results on single host
./polscan -r 2017-10-09 # Recreate result JSONRunning the GUI
