Lynis is an security auditing and hardening tool for Unix derivatives like Linux, BSD and Solaris. It performs
|
|
|
|
|
an in-depth scan on the system to detect software and security issues. Besides information related to security,
|
|
|
|
|
it will also scan for general system information, installed packages, and possible configuration mistakes. The
|
|
|
|
|
software is aimed at assisting automated auditing, configuration management, software patch management,
|
|
|
|
|
vulnerability detection, and malware scanning of Unix-based systems.
