B-2. SECURITY READINESS REVIEW SCRIPTS/GOLD DISK. The DISA Field<br />
Security Office (FSO) develops the Gold Disks and Security Readiness Reviews<br />
(SRRs) to assist System Administrators (SA) in securing systems and applications in<br />
accordance with the DISA STIGs, Checklists, and applicable Center for Internet<br />
Security (CIS) benchmarks. This functionality was developed to meet the needs of the<br />
system auditors and SA’s in accessing the security posture of the respective IS. The<br />
SA’s, Gold Disks, and SRRs encompass the ability to detect installed products, identify<br />
and remediate applicable vulnerabilities, generate a file that is used for asset<br />
registration within the vulnerability management system, and provide a findings report.<br />
B-3. NSA OPERATING SYSTEM SECURITY GUIDES/NSA ROUTER AND SWITCH<br />
GUIDES. The NSA has written information guides to enhance the posture of both<br />
commercial and open source software. These guides cover different version of<br />
workstation software, switch software, and router software. The objective of the NSA<br />
research program is to develop technological advances and share that information with<br />
the software development community through a variety of transfer mechanisms. Figure<br />
