    - Learning about SCAP
      The Security Content Automation Protocol (SCAP) is a suite of open standards designed to automate vulnerability management, measurement, and policy compliance evaluation of computer systems.

It facilitates automated reporting, scoring, and remediation workflows to reduce manual security management efforts.

Importing SCAP content

BigFix uses an Security Content Automation Protocol (SCAP) Import Wizard to convert SCAP XML input files, typically XCCDF files, into BigFix content such as Fixlets. This process enables the integration of standardized security content into the BigFix platform.

Important: Importing a SCAP datastream will create a new site in BigFix, which may contain hundreds of Fixlets and analyses. This may cause the BigFix console to temporary slowdown after the import is complete. It is recommended to proceed thoughtfully and monitor performance after the import.
