Making STIG Compliance Much Easier

Tired of struggling to implement the Database STIG on a server, only to have to repeat the process on another server, then another...?

When you upgrade to SQL Server 2008, you can use policy-based management to dramatically reduce the workload. Define a policy once and apply it to all your servers at one time. Sweet! Download the SQL Server 2008 Policy-Based Management whitepaper here: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd938891.aspx.

Before you print it, I suggest you add a footer with page numbers.

Also: It ought to be a TechNet blog, but here's an MSDN blog specifically for SQL Server's Policy-Based Management: https://blogs.msdn.com/sqlpbm/.

  Do you have STIG policy templates built? If so could you post them, I am certain the community would appreciate it.
