Hello all!

Barath, where did you get the Security Policies for windows? I´m trying to find them, but, with the lack of funding from the US government, it seems that all the security policies sources are shut down.

Best regards,

Assunto: [Marketing Mail] Re: [Open-scap] OSCAP on Windows: UNKNOWN results

Hello,

A result of "unknown" often means that the scanner was not able to collect information about the system.
It is likely that OpenSCAP hasn't implemented the probes necessary to collect the data to assess the checks which resulted in "unknown".

Currently there are only a few probes enabled for Windows:

  *   accesstoken
  *   registry
  *   wmi
  *   system_info

Hi Team,



I'm evaluating oscap 1.3.0 on windows, and I have a query on the same.



I'm trying out oscap scanner in some of the test Windows machines (with different versions like win 7, 8, 8.1, 10, 2012, 2016...). I do see the oscap.exe scan getting triggered and evaluating the OVAL definitions successfully, however when I look at the html report generated, there are lot of definitions marked with "UNKNOWN" as result.



Can someone please help me understand the possible reasons, that can result in "UNKNOWN" result? Also, is there anything I can do to get this working?



Below is a snippet of the report from a Windows 8.1 machine, which shows UNKNOWN results.

Thanks.
