Allright :-) I was just thinking aloud.. not necessairly "the" but
rather "something alike" CIS Benchmarks.. I was using them several
times and found people also keen to use them as security measure
before implementation :-)

It is nice to see SA anyway and know things get improved.. it would be
also nice to have a tool that would easily assess the OS state.. I
know this is not the goal here and not really the topic.. but could be
a nice derivative :-)

If we speak about four byte DoS I think this should not be possible in
the default configuration anyway.. or at least it would be nice to
have a tool that would show the problem and tell you how to fix it..
kind of automated OS hardening.. I am sure this could be done with CIS
alike set of rules, no? :-)
