Security Compliance Enforcement is a premium feature for Puppet Enterprise and Open Source Puppet

Security Compliance Enforcement uses Puppet policy-as-code (PaC) to enforce security configurations aligned to CIS Benchmarks and DISA STIGs, giving you a leg up on many compliance expectations and streamlining audit prep. In Puppet Enterprise, it is accessed through the included Security Compliance Management Console.

It can be applied to Puppet Enterprise or Open Source Puppet (see the compatibility list below).

What are tasks?

Modules can contain tasks that take action outside of a desired state managed by Puppet. It’s perfect for troubleshooting or deploying one-off changes, distributing scripts to run across your infrastructure, or automating changes that need to happen in a particular order as part of an application deployment.
