[Verse 1] System admins think they've got it made Running SCAP scans, thinking rules are all obeyed But behind the automated screen There's a world that scanners have never seen Manual checks are waiting in the wings Interviews and documents, all the human things [Chorus] SCAP won't cover every STIG requirement Manual verification is adherent Thirty to sixty percent automation The rest needs human investigation Don't believe the myth, don't fall for the trap SCAP scans alone will leave compliance gaps [Verse 2] Physical inspections can't be automated away Process observations need human eyes today Document review requires reading comprehension Staff interviews reveal what tech can't mention Configuration checks are just the start Human judgment plays the crucial part [Chorus] SCAP won't cover every STIG requirement Manual verification is adherent Thirty to sixty percent automation The rest needs human investigation Don't believe the myth, don't fall for the trap SCAP scans alone will leave compliance gaps [Bridge] Technical verification has its place But don't let automation set the pace Policies and procedures need review Administrative controls need follow-through SCAP's a tool but not the final word Human oversight must still be heard [Verse 3] When compliance officers make their rounds They're looking for what scanning never found Training records, incident response plans Security awareness across all hands SCAP handles configs, that much is true But governance needs the human view [Chorus] SCAP won't cover every STIG requirement Manual verification is adherent Thirty to sixty percent automation The rest needs human investigation Don't believe the myth, don't fall for the trap SCAP scans alone will leave compliance gaps [Outro] So plan your STIG assessment right Combine the automated with human insight SCAP and manual working as one team That's how you build a compliance dream
