Security Content Automation Protocol (SCAP)

Security Content Automation Protocol (SCAP) is a set of standards used by organizations to automate and improve the management of cybersecurity vulnerabilities and configuration compliance. It provides a common framework for identifying, assessing, and fixing security issues across different systems and devices. By using SCAP, IT teams can efficiently detect vulnerabilities, ensure security settings are correctly configured, and maintain compliance with security policies, all through automated tools. This helps organizations strengthen their cybersecurity posture consistently and effectively, reducing manual effort and minimizing the risk of overlooked vulnerabilities.
