This publication introduces the mSCP, describes use cases for leveraging the mSCP content, and gives an overview of the resources available on the project’s GitHub site. The GitHub site provides practical, actionable recommendations in the form of secure baselines and associated rules, and it is continuously curated and updated to support each new release of macOS.
