Can I also double check that the below para's[1] note about plain text does not apply to reports?
<quote>Another useful features of oscap is the ability to generate SCAP content in a human-readable format. It allows you to transform an XML file into HTML or plain-text format. This feature is used to generate security guides and checklists, which serve as a source of information, as well as guidance for secure system configuration. The results of system scans can also be transformed to well-readable result reports. </quote> [1] https://static.open-scap.org/openscap-1.0/oscap_user_manual.html#_generating_reports_and_guides On Friday, April 28, 2017 4:10 PM, Philippe Thierry <[email protected]> wrote: Le 28/04/2017 à 09:53, Luther Goh Lu Feng a écrit : > Currently, the html report from an xccdf scan has the value as attached.

The report is for human information only. Using a shell script directly, you have to parse the XML file. I'm currently integrating openscap-daemon into Debian sid (it's in the NEW queue by now, should be integrated in some days), which will help you to schedule and store the results and reports for postprocessing, which make it easier than shell-scripting. If you want a complete integration, Scaptimony would help through storing results in a database in a ROR ecosystem... Yet I didn't start its packaging (well its ruby code... leave me some zen time first ;) ) -- Philippe. _______________________________________________ Open-scap-list mailing list [email protected] https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/open-scap-list _______________________________________________ Open-scap-list mailing list [email protected] https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/open-scap-list
