Federal security professionals within the DoD must comply with the technical testing and hardening frameworks known as STIGs — Security Technical Implementation Guides. STIGs contain technical guidance for “locking down” or “hardening” information systems and software that might be vulnerable to a malicious computer attack.

While security is perhaps the single most important task federal IT professionals tackle, it’s also the most complex. There are hundreds of STIGs, with new guides being released every 90 days. Generating STIG checklists and maintaining compliance requires a series of existing third-party systems, cumbersome spreadsheets, and time-consuming manual effort.

Leveraging Splunk and industry-leading automation technology, Atlas STIG Compliance helps to solve the most common compliance challenges from system accreditation through continuous monitoring — all in a beautiful, unified interface that provides a single source of truth for managing compliance.
