description

Common Configuration Enumeration (CCET) provides unique identifiers (i.e., CCE Identifiers) to system configuration issues in order to facilitate fast and accurate correlation of configuration data across multiple information sources and tools. For example, CCE Identifiers can be used to associate checks in configuration assessment tools with statements in configuration best-practice documents and security guides, are the main identifiers used for the settings in the U.S. Federal Desktop Core Configuration (FDCC) data file downloads, and are a key component for enabling security content automation.
