Microsoft Security Compliance Manager (SCM): Baseline Download Help

  • Article

Background

When the [[Microsoft Security Compliance Manager (SCM)]] tool was initially designed, the intention was that all content (i.e. baselines) published by Microsoft would flow to users from within the SCM tool itself. Meaning, users would download all Microsoft baselines from within SCM, and not need to manually download anything from the Microsoft Download Center.

Since the initial release of the tool, the SCM team has received feedback that it is still useful to be able to manually obtain the baselines without having to launch the SCM tool itself. For that reason, we are maintaining this document in order to publish links to all of our latest content when it releases.

 

Thanks for using the SCM tool, and feel free to contact us: Security Solutions Questions & Feedback
