gold disc and SRRs.  http://iase.disa.mil/stigs/index.html and
http://iase.disa.mil/stigs/faq.html

Pros: Free, updated, widely used throughout DoD, produce useable results,
all moving slowly to XML basis and VMS output
Cons: Clunky, quirky (but pretty effective), requires DoD PKI cert for
access, some of the checks are manual/interview

Caution, do NOT use the "remediate" button in gold disc or you *will* brick
the box!
