The Security Content Automation Protocol (SCAP) is a suite of specifications that standardize the format and nomenclature by which security software products communicate security content, particularly software flaw and security configuration information1. SCAP is a multi-purpose protocol that supports automated configuration, vulnerability, and patch checking, technical control compliance activities, and security measurement. Goals for the development of SCAP include standardizing system security management, promoting interoperability of security products, and fostering the use of standard expressions of security content.
