Cinc Auditor Overview

Secure your stack with a hardened Cinc Auditor image freshly-built by Minimus. Minimus images always include the most up-to-date package version for all packages and dependencies contained in the image.

Cinc Auditor is a distribution of Chef InSpec for compliance and audit workflows that is compatible with InSpec Profiles, letting you validate the state of your infrastructure, containers, and cloud resources against your compliance requirements.

Try It Out

For a quick test, print the help menu:

docker run --rm reg.mini.dev/cinc-auditor

Step 1 - Download a sample InSpec profile

Clone a sample compliance profile, such as the DevSec Linux Baseline:

git clone https://github.com/dev-sec/linux-baseline.git

Step 2 - Run the profile against the container

Mount the profile into the container's /share working directory and execute it:

docker run --rm \
  -v "$(pwd)/linux-baseline:/share/linux-baseline" \
  reg.mini.dev/cinc-auditor exec /share/linux-baseline

Cinc Auditor prints a pass/fail summary for each control in the profile.

Profile:   DevSec Linux Security Baseline (linux-baseline)
Version:   2.10.0
Target:    local://
Target ID: 00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000

  ✔  os-01: Trusted hosts login
     ✔  File /etc/hosts.equiv is expected not to exist
...

Profile Summary: 9 successful controls, 1 control failure, 45 controls skipped
Test Summary: 32 successful, 7 failures, 47 skipped

Technical Considerations

The Cinc Auditor image provided by Minimus is a slim, security-hardened alternative to the public image. The images are largely interchangeable, with a few differences as noted below.

Cinc Auditor built by Minimus:

Runs as root to support required functions in alignment with the public image.
Drill down on the version specification tab to see the default user, listening ports, entrypoint, volumes, environment variables, etc.

The Payoff

A hardened, minimal image that will remain more secure for the long run and accrue vulnerabilities at a slower rate.

See the risk reduction dashboard for a detailed CVE comparison over the past 30 days.
Review the compliance report to see the default hardening and security configurations for the image.
