Steps to Customize Your Secure Baseline Scan Key Considerations Best Practices for Suppression

Steps to Customize Your Secure Baseline Scan

Navigate to Scan History

  • Log into the CYRISMA platform.
  • From the left-hand menu, select Scan History to access the list of previously conducted scans.

Select the Secure Baseline Scan

  • Find the specific Secure Baseline Scan you want to modify and click on it.
  • This will open a detailed view of the scan results.

Drill Down into a Machine

  • Within the scan results, click on the specific machine you wish to modify.
  • This will display the controls applied to that machine during the scan.

Suppress Individual Controls

  • Click on each control you want to suppress.
  • In the control details, you’ll have the option to Suppress the benchmark for future scans.
  • Confirm the suppression action.

 

Repeat as Needed

  • Continue to suppress additional controls as required for the machine or scan.

Key Considerations

  • Customer-Specific Suppressions: Ensure that changes are applied to the relevant machine or customer instance.
  • Operating System Profiles: Some controls may vary based on the OS profile. Review the settings carefully before applying suppressions.
  • Documentation: Keep a record of the suppressed controls and reasons for the adjustments to maintain transparency and accountability.

Best Practices for Suppression

  1. Evaluate Risks: Suppress only when necessary, ensuring no critical security benchmarks are bypassed.
  2. Reassess Periodically: Regularly review suppressed controls to confirm whether they should remain suppressed or be re-enabled.
  3. Communicate Changes: Inform all relevant stakeholders about suppression decisions.

Customizing your secure baseline scans provides flexibility while ensuring security requirements are met. For further assistance, contact CYRISMA Support.
