New Features
************

* The ansible-hardening role supports the application of the Red Hat
  Enterprise Linux 6 STIG configurations to systems running CentOS 7
  and Ubuntu 16.04 LTS.


Security Issues
***************

* "PermitRootLogin" in the ssh configuration has changed from "yes"
  to "without-password".  This will only allow ssh to be used to
  authenticate root via a key.
