Complete PostgreSQL STIG compliance 2. Complete Kubernetes STIG compliance 3. Complete Linux STIG compliance 4. Automated STIG compliance checking 5. Regular compliance audits --- ## Automated Compliance Checking Run the STIG compliance checker: ```bash ./scripts/stig-compliance-check.sh ``` This script checks: - Kubernetes configuration - PostgreSQL configuration - Linux system configuration - Application security --- ## References - DISA STIGs: https://public.cyber.mil/stigs/ - Application Security STIG - Database STIG - Kubernetes STIG - Linux STIG - Web Server STIG
