Downloading XCCDF Files for STIG Remediation

To utilize the STIG Hardening Tool effectively, you must obtain XCCDF files from the Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA) website. These files contain detailed security configuration benchmarks essential for ensuring compliance with Security Technical Implementation Guides (STIGs) on various Linux distributions. Follow these steps to acquire the appropriate XCCDF file:

  1. Visit the DISA STIGs Download Page: Navigate to https://public.cyber.mil/stigs/downloads/ to access the official repository.
  2. Select Your Operating System: Browse the available STIGs to find the XCCDF file corresponding to your Linux distribution (e.g., Ubuntu 24.04 LTS, CentOS 7).
  3. Download the XCCDF File: Download the `.xml` file that matches your system, such as `U_CAN_Ubuntu_24-04_LTS_STIG_V1R1_Manual-xccdf.xml` for Ubuntu 24.04 LTS.
  4. Verify File Integrity: After downloading, verify the file’s integrity using any provided checksums to ensure it hasn’t been corrupted.
  5. Upload to the Tool: Use the upload form below to load the XCCDF file and initiate the remediation process.

Note: Compatibility is crucial—select an XCCDF file tailored to your Linux distribution and version to avoid errors or incomplete remediation. For assistance, refer to the Privacy Policy or Contact Us for support.
