Creating and Managing Waivers

Waivers provide a way for you to temporarily affect audit scoring for managed systems. Waivers

are useful when you have a managed system that is non-compliant with a rule or a benchmark

but you do not wish to bring the system into compliance for a temporary period. An example

of this would be a system in the Accounting Department that you don't want to patch systems

near the end of an accounting cycle. You can create a waiver that will temporarily ignore any

issues on the machine until the critical time has passed.
