What Makes ConfigOS So Successful?

ConfigOS – Rock Solid, Simple RMF Accreditation and STIG Compliance!
A complete, easy to use software environment for creating, implementing, and remediating security policy, such as the DISA STIG and the CIS benchmarks

FastPath Policy Authoring – Accelerates RMF accreditation by hardening policy controls around an application environment in 60 minutes.
ConfigOS is a flexible Policy Signature authoring system designed to quickly and easily create/tune/extend STIG/policy controls to the requirements of a user and their application environments. Our software creates policies for secure baselines and manages STIG support for the entire STIG and application lifecycle – from pre-production/RMF/ATO through to STIG and application production remediation. The ConfigOS Builder, with FastPath, allows a customer to harden every CAT I/II/III control around an application in typically less than 60 minutes versus the days/weeks/months it takes to do it manually. Additionally, ConfigOS has remediation rollback and special functionality to “bake” STIG POAMs/waivers into its remediation process.

High Performance Scanning and Automated Remediation – The fastest, most complete STIG scanner available, and it is the “easy button” for automated STIG remediation.
ConfigOS STIG 360 manages the complete STIG lifecycle of an application environment. ConfigOS automatically “fixes” STIG policy non-compliances for Windows and Linux systems. ConfigOS can scan 3,000 to 5,000 endpoints per hour and remediate 1,000 to 3,000 endpoints per hour from a single instance of ConfigOS. Add additional instances of ConfigOS, increase capacity. SteelCloud provides tested, documented STIG content so the compliance effort is a snap!

Comprehensive Compliance Reporting – Easy to use XML compliance reporting is a strength of ConfigOS.
ConfigOS provides comprehensive enterprise and individual endpoint XML-based compliance reporting. Additionally, ConfigOS also produces XCCDF output for easy integration with STIG Viewer.

Government Use Cases – Currently operating in all of the above – physical and virtualized – connected and disconnected – private, cloud, and tactical – unclassified and classified – DoD, Federal Civilian, and Vendor.
ConfigOS is agent-less and does not require changes to endpoint application stacks or adding infrastructure – no Internet, no web servers, no database servers, no license servers, no domain controllers, no changes in Active Directory, no STIG waivers. ConfigOS effectively operates in both large and small networks, classified environments, labs, disconnected networks, tactical environments, and FedRamp clouds.

ConfigOS is easy to buy – Available on GSA and other BPAs.

Welcome to SteelCloud’s short introduction to automated STIG & CIS remediation using our patented remediation tool – ConfigOS. ConfigOS is not a simple scanner that tells what you’ve done wrong (such as Nessus, SCAP, Retina et al), but rather a complete remediation solution that changes everything about how you harden systems around applications and stay in compliance. ConfigOS can remediate individual Windows or Linux endpoints in less than 90 seconds with a capacity of 1,000 to 3,000 endpoint remediations per hour for each instance of ConfigOS. ConfigOS is currently implemented in classified and unclassified environments, tactical programs, disconnected labs, and the AWS commercial cloud

ConfigOS is client-less technology, requiring no software agents. ConfigOS scans endpoint systems and remediates hundreds of STIG controls in under in under 90 seconds.

Automated remediation rollback as well as comprehensive compliance reporting and STIG Viewer XCCDF output are provided. ConfigOS was designed to harden every CAT 1/2/3 STIG control around an application baseline in 60 minutes – typically eliminating weeks or months from the RMF accreditation timeline. ConfigOS automates the incorporation of documented policy waivers to ensure flawless automated STIG remediation and compliance reporting. In addition to Linux (RHEL, Ubuntu, SUSE, Oracle, CentOS) and Microsoft Windows workstation and server operating systems, ConfigOS also addresses other Windows applications such as SQL, IIS, IE, Chrome, and all of the Microsoft Office components including Office 2016. SteelCloud publishes and supports over 10,000 STIG and CIS controls across these platforms. To receive more information on ConfigOS, please contact SteelCloud at info@steelcloud.com. Additional video demonstrations of ConfigOS are available on You Tube.

How To Choose The Best Theme For My Business?

Building a beautiful website for your business begins with choosing a theme — a design that controls page layout, widget areas, and default style. Selecting Polygon for your business website can feel overwhelming, but you can make it easier by focusing on these three questions.

What Am I Publishing on My Website?
Draft a visual map of your website to help you plan your site structure and decide what you want your homepage to look like. Will your homepage contain static information about your business like a welcome message and business hours or do you want to showcase your latest blog content?

What Features Do I Need?
Are you building a restaurant website, a landing page for your hotel, a corporate blog, or something completely different? Depending on your business, you may need website features exclusive to certain themes.

What Look and Feel Do I Want for My Website?
You can filter themes by style and color if you have a specific look in mind or need to match a brand logo. While most themes can be tweaked with custom headers and background colors, Custom Design unlocks next-level customization.

Think back to the content you expect to publish on your site. Do you need a design that showcases photos? If so, choose a portfolio site or a design that makes the most of high-resolution photos. Perhaps photography plays a small role in your website design. If so, avoid themes that only look good with a lot of photos.

Daily Inspiration

On autumn weekends with good weather you can almost experience caravans of people marching over the grandiose lookout balconies between the Dolomites and the Tauern and filling the mountain lodges to capacity. But very few people have the idea of turning the perspective around and approaching the Carnic ridge for once from the valley side. And that is something that is certainly worthwhile.
It is no coincidence that at Heinfels in the valley of Drau, which is called Pustertal here, there stands an ancient castle that still appears to be fortified. It guards the entrance to two valleys: the Villgratental and the Tyrolean Gailtal. The latter is quite hidden, as it begins with a terrain level high above the valley floor of the river Drau. There is a climb of several hundred metres on a serpentine road before reaching the community of Kartitsch, with the prettily shaped tower of the St. Leonhard parish church. From the enclosure wall of the cemetery you can enjoy a distant view to the west into the Pustertal, which here runs in a strikingly straight line. The reason for this is a distinct geological line, the “peri-adriatic seam“. This frontier line leaves the Pustertal in Kartitsch and follows the Tyrolean Gailtal, which to the east of the Kartitscher Sattel is called the Tilliacher Tal, and then further east beyond the federal border with Carinthia again changes its name, and for the next 20 kilometres goes under the name of Lesachtal. At Kötschach-Mauthen the name of the valley changes again, confusingly back to Gailtal, which at Villach at last flows into the Drau.
Viewed from above, the Gail or Lesachtal also runs in a straight line. There is a clear distinction in appearance between the northern and southern sides of the valley. N ons side the gentle foothills of the Lienzer Dolomites, with its wide alp areas, on the other side the rocky contours of the Carnic ridge towering above thick mountain forest and marking the state border with Italy.
In Kartitsch we are already 1.350 m above sea level, the area is one of the highest situated valleys in East Tyrol, which itself is at high altitude.
Some 200 m higher the Kartitscher Sattel is reached, from where you can look down onto Obertilliach and Untertilliach.
“Golzentipp“ is the name of the local mountain in this area. A perfect vantage point with a grandiose panorama view, encompassing the Hohen Tauern and the Schober group of mountains, the Lienzer Dolomites, the Carnic Alps, the Sextener Dolomites and far into the Pustertal. The chances are good that the view can also be enjoyed, as testified by the many years of meteorological records taken in this region, showing an above-average number of sunny days.
Fans of high rocky cliffs will prefer the south side of the valley and head for one of the many side valleys of the Carnic ridge. Pfannspitze, Großer Kinigat, Porze, Cima Manzon, Gamskofel, Hochspitz, Steinkarspitz – between the Obstanser See and the Luggauer Scharte there are countless opportunities to test your stamina and alpine abilities in the midst of grandiose mountain scenery.

Far far away, behind the word mountains, far from the countries Vokalia and Consonantia, there live the blind texts. Separated they live in Bookmarksgrove right at the coast of the Semantics, a large language ocean. A small river named Duden flows by their place and supplies it with the necessary regelialia. It is a paradisematic country, in which roasted parts of sentences fly into your mouth.

The Big Oxmox advised her not to do so, because there were thousands of bad Commas, wild Question Marks and devious Semikoli, but the Little Blind Text didn’t listen. She packed her seven versalia, put her initial into the belt and made herself on the way.

A small river named Duden flows by their place and supplies it with the necessary regelialia. It is a paradise matic country, in which roasted parts of sentences fly into your mouth. Even the all-powerful Pointing has no control about the blind texts it is an almost unorthographic life One day however a small line of blind text by the name of Lorem Ipsum decided to leave for the far World of Grammar. The Big Oxmox advised her not to do so, because there were thousands of bad Commas, wild Question Marks and devious Semikoli, but the Little Blind Text didn’t listen. She packed her seven versalia, put her initial into the belt and made herself on the way. When she reached the first hills of the Italic Mountains, she had a last view back on the skyline of her hometown Bookmarksgrove, the headline of Alphabet Village and the subline of her own road.
