We've used the CIS benchmarks as well. Someday I'd like to get to a more formalized certification and accreditation process. In the meantime, I'm hoping to publish recommended baseline security standards. Holland II, Richard H wrote:

I am interested in what others are using to check security of new

using scripts or checklists? Thanks in advance!

We use the CIS Benchmarks scripts. They work really well and cover many
of the OSes that we run. They provide pdf documents as well as script
