CIS V2 specifications for VIOS server

The Center for Internet Security (CIS) develops benchmarks for the secure configuration of a target system. CIS benchmarks are consensus-based, best-practice security configuration guides that are developed and accepted by government, business, industry, and academia.

The CIS specifications for VIOS server provide guidance for establishing a secure configuration by applying the new profiles.
