Security Compliance Manager version 2.0.20.0 released

Long time no post... No explanations this time. ;)

Microsoft Security Compliance Manager version 2 has been released few weeks ago. Take a look at it if you want to access and automate all of your organization’s security baselines in one centralized location.

The tool allows you to implement security baselines for Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1, Windows Server 2008 SP2, Windows Server 2003 SP2, Hyper-V, Windows 7, Windows Vista SP2, Windows XP SP3, BitLocker Drive Encryption, Windows Internet Explorer 9, Windows Internet Explorer 8, Microsoft Office 2010, and Microsoft Office 2007 SP2. Tool allows you to compare your own production GPOs against Microsoft's guidance. You can export either tested Microsoft's baselines or your own customized baselines directly to group policies which you can import to your AD.
