STIG Version 1, Release 2, Section 1.1: “The consensus content was developed using an open source project called SCAP Security Guide. The project’s website is https://fedorahosted.org/scapsecurity-guide/. Except for differences in formatting to accommodate the DISA STIG publising process, the content of the RHEL6 STIG should mirror the SCAP Security Guide content with only minor divergences as updates from multiple sources work through the consensus process”
