SCAP Workbench

SCAP Workbench is a graphical utility that simplifies the use of OpenSCAP for performing configuration and vulnerability scans on local or remote systems. It lets users run scans based on XCCDF or SDS files, generate reports in several formats, and apply remediation actions as defined by those files. The interface also supports editing XCCDF profiles by enabling or disabling individual elements, with changes saved as separate tailoring files.

The tool targets administrators and security professionals who need a user‑friendly way to assess system compliance without using command‑line tools. By providing visual controls for scanning, reporting, and profile customization, it makes routine OpenSCAP tasks accessible to users who may not be familiar with the underlying CLI.

SCAP Workbench is available for multiple platforms, including Fedora, RHEL, CentOS, Scientific Linux, Debian, Ubuntu, Windows, and macOS, and is distributed as a stable package with accompanying documentation and user manuals.
