Compliance : your machines properly set up
"Compliance" page, good-practice tab
There are lists of good practice recognised the world over: "the firewall must be on", "passwords must be at least so many characters", "that unused service must be turned off". This page compares your machines with those lists and tells you where you stand.
Your machines against good practice: 94%, and the two disks left to encrypt.
Four figures at the top
The number of machines analysed, the number of active checklists, the average score of your machines, and the number of points not yet green. At Les Ateliers, the score reads 94 %, a very good figure for a small company, reached in three months.
Running an analysis
The Run analysis button reviews all your machines. It takes a few minutes, and a message invites you to come back later: the page does not freeze, you can do something else meanwhile.
Each checkpoint opens to show its description, its rationale, why the rule exists, the remediation, and the items actually checked on the machine. A Translate button puts the text into your language when the original rule is in English.
Nobody reaches 100 %, and that is not the goal. Some rules do not apply to your trade. What matters is that the curve rises and that no critical point stays open. A score above 85 % already puts a small company above average.
What it actually earns you
This score feeds your insurance file, your monthly reports, and your answers to your clients' questionnaires. Les Ateliers answered a large customer's tender simply by attaching the export from this page.
A Generate PDF button produces that document, ready to send.
In closing
Comparing yourself to a recognised list avoids arguments of opinion: either the firewall is on, or it is not. Aim for progress, not a hundred per cent, which means nothing on any real estate.
