Editing SCAP scan schedules

You can view or edit a benchmark schedule on the Script Detail page. This page allows you to manage and customize scripts for configuring, scheduling, and specifying which devices the SCAP scan runs on. The scripts for SCAP are standard KScripts.

NOTE: This section does not provide information about every feature available on the Script Detail page; it only contains information pertinent to using and understanding a SCAP scan.

You can access the Script Detail page from the Benchmark wizard, as described in Access SCAP Scan information and from the SCAP Scan Schedules page, as described in View SCAP scan results.

View the resolved XCCDF files

You can view the input files generated by the SCAP scan resolution process.

A benchmark is loaded into the server and the XCCDF file undergoes a process called resolution, which generates the input files necessary to run a particular profile.

1.
Go to the Script Detail page:
a.
Log in to the appliance Administrator Console, https://appliance_hostname/admin. Or, if the Show organization menu in admin header option is enabled in the appliance General Settings, select an organization in the drop-down list in the top-right corner of the page next to the login information.
b.
On the left navigation bar, click Scripting, then click Scripts.
2.
(Optional) To add any supporting executable files necessary to run the script, scroll down to the Dependencies section, then click Add a new dependency, then click Browse or Choose File.
3.
Optional: To view the details of these files, click and download the selected ZIP file.
View the OVAL timestamp

You can view the OVAL timestamp (the time the OVAL document was compiled).

1.
Go to the Script Detail page:
a.
Log in to the appliance Administrator Console, https://appliance_hostname/admin. Or, if the Show organization menu in admin header option is enabled in the appliance General Settings, select an organization in the drop-down list in the top-right corner of the page next to the login information.
b.
On the left navigation bar, click Scripting, then click Scripts.
2.
Scroll down to the Dependencies section, then click benchmark.zip and extract the OVAL XML file.
For example, fdcc-winxp-oval.xml.
3.
In the OVAL file, look for <oval:timestamp>.
View script tasks

You can view tasks associated with a particular script.

1.
Go to the Script Detail page:
a.
