Hello to All of you,
I've been given a group policy baseline for window server 2008R2/2012R2 . I need to compare the actual policy with the new baseline.

- Can you please confirm that Microsoft Security Compliance Manager 4.0 is the right tool for this activity?
- Can I install this tool on a standalone PC with windows 7 and import both policy for the comparison?

Hi this is Exellent,
I took your message to my supervisor and he was fine with your message. Surely we will test and eventually implement it.
I have another question regarding SCM 4.0 and I hope you can help as well .
Can SCM 4.0 connect to a remote Windows 2012r2 and perform the comparison of the policy ? in few words avoiding the backup and import manually ?
the goal is to have something similar to nessus ( hopefuly SCM) that perform an audit the policy of all the windows server in the farm and compare them with the Baseline Security Policy .
Thank you
Carlo
