Hi there,

Nessus, when subscribed to the Professional Feed or being managed by the
Security Center, can be used to audit GPO settings against a policy such
as Center for Internet Security, FDCC and others. Tenable also offers
a variety of tools that let you develop your own audit polices based on
your clients gold builds, existing systems and so on.
