InSpec Profile to validate the secure configuration of Canonical Ubuntu 18.04 LTS, against the DISA's STIGs.

Getting Started

It is intended and recommended that InSpec run this profile from a "runner" host (such as a DevOps orchestration server, an administrative management system, or a developer's workstation/laptop) against the target remotely over ssh.

For the best security of the runner, always install on the runner the latest version of InSpec and supporting Ruby language components.

Latest versions and installation options are available at the InSpec site.

Git is required to download the latest InSpec profiles using the instructions below. Git can be downloaded from the Git site.

The following attributes must be configured in an attributes file for the profile to run correctly. More information about InSpec attributes can be found in the InSpec Profile Documentation.

# Input description
input_name: 'value'

For more info on inspec inputs see https://docs.chef.io/inspec/inputs/

Running This Profile.

When the "runner" host uses this profile overlay for the first time, follow these steps:

inspec exec https://github.com/mitre/canonical-ubuntu-18.04-lts-stig-baseline.git --input-files=<path_to_your_input_file/name_of_your_input.yml> [-t <transport_protocol>://<hostname>:<port> --user=<username> --password=<password>] --reporter=cli json:<path_to_your_output_file/name_of_your_output_file.json>

This will run the latest version of the profile from your runner.

Viewing the JSON Results

The JSON results output file can be loaded into heimdall-lite for a user-interactive, graphical view of the InSpec results.

The JSON InSpec results file may also be loaded into a full heimdall server, allowing for additional functionality such as to store and compare multiple profile runs.
