Lynis Enterprise Reviews
"Cloud-based SAAS solution for all your Linux security auditing needs"
Overall: We use it as a tool to monitor our servers without having to log in to each one separately.
Pros: This is the paid solution to have all your Lynis audits in one centralized location. For those that are unfamiliar, Lynis is one of the most well-known Linux security auditing packages. What the enterprise solution provides is a web interface to your audit logs in a nice clear overview. You can easily compare different servers for security issues/suggestions or view installed applications and much more. Alongside the web-interface, purchasing Lynis Enterprise allows you to make use of the Lynis Enterprise plugin package, which is basically a set of add-ons to get more information about each system, including an overview of firewall rules, SSH users, Docker configuration and more. It is easy to install on a server and requires next to no technical knowledge to get it working.
Cons: You pay a monthly (or yearly) subscription fee per server. There is also a limit to two audits per system per day, but this is very generous and you should not reach this limit under normal use.
