Compliance Status

Overall STIG Compliance: ~60%

Completed

  • Application Security: 85%
  • Web Server: 90%
  • Network Security: 70%

In Progress

  • Database: 40%
  • Kubernetes: 50%
  • Linux: 30%

Next Steps

  1. 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:

./scripts/stig-compliance-check.sh

This script checks:

  • Kubernetes configuration
  • PostgreSQL configuration
  • Linux system configuration
  • Application security
