Secure Servers and Endpoints

Servers and endpoints form the backbone of most business operations. Mondoo's cross-platform CLI, cnspec, continuously scans Linux, macOS, Windows, AIX, and FreeBSD systems for misconfigurations and vulnerabilities so you can catch issues before they're exploited.

To learn how cnspec works under the hood, read Mondoo and cnspec.

Install and registerCopy Anchor Link

• Install cnspec on a single asset
• Register cnspec with Mondoo

For larger deployments and platform-specific options:

• Register with a credentials file
• Run cnspec as a service
• Linux, macOS, or Windows installation options
• Install with a standalone binary

To add a server or endpoint in the Mondoo App, open Integrations, select INSTALL, and choose Linux, macOS, or Windows under Server & Endpoint Security. The page gives you an install command with a short-lived registration token. The AIX and FreeBSD entries instead show you how to scan those hosts remotely over SSH from a workstation where cnspec is installed. To learn more, read Scan AIX and Scan FreeBSD.
