Course Overview
TopThis course introduces the zSecure Audit rule-based compliance evaluation framework. The course explains rule-based compliance evaluation concepts and includes an overview and demonstration of the supported compliance evaluation functions and reports.
With the standard built-in compliance evaluation interface, you report the compliance of your systems against one or more of the supported external standards: STIG, STIGplus, GSD, or PCI-DSS.
The course also teaches you how to customize compliance evaluations for the supported standards to fit your company's requirements.
Finally, you learn how to create a company-defined compliance standard. Hands-on exercises are included to enforce the skills that are taught in this course so that you can experiment with the rule-based compliance evaluation interface.
