XCCDF (Extensible Configuration Checklist Description Format) and OVAL (Open Vulnerability and Assessment Language) are two SCAP (Security Content Automation Protocol) standards that can enable the organization to view each of the configuration checks in a machine-readable checklist format for full automation. XCCDF is a standard for expressing security checklists and benchmarks, while OVAL is a standard for expressing system configuration information and vulnerabilities. ARF (Asset Reporting Format) is a standard for expressing the transport format of information about assets, not configuration checks. CPE (Common Platform Enumeration) is a standard for identifying and naming hardware, software, and operating systems, not configuration checks. CVE (Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures) is a standard for identifying and naming publicly known cybersecurity vulnerabilities, not configuration checks. CVSS (Common Vulnerability Scoring System) is a standard for assessing the severity of cybersecurity vulnerabilities, not configuration checks.
