I'm looking at hardening our golden image inline with the CIS benchmarks for Windows Server 2008R2 and 2012R2. But, after looking at the two benchmark documents(registration required - sorry) from CIS, the 2008 document format is different and larger so its difficult to know how to tackle this comparison in a time effective manner?

Do you have any ideas on how to compare the 2008 and 2012 benchmarks and deal with differences?

Excel points made out of the two of them, make an 1:1 comparison for the points that are the same, add everything that you have more on 2012r2 as an separate project , profit!

  • Interesting answer, if you can elaborate on some points that will help me. I.e. Is it possible to easily convert the pdf documents into "excel points"?

  • I'm afraid this will take some time and it is really subjective for the environment.

  • I'm affraid you'd say that. Guess I'll have to bite the bullet and start the long task of comparing a 600 page document. :<
