Configures auditing against a CIS Benchmark item.

Level: 2

File Integrity Monitoring (FIM) is a feature that monitors critical system files in Windows or Linux for potential signs of attack or compromise.

FIM provides a detection mechanism for compromised files. When FIM is enabled, critical system files are monitored for changes that might indicate a threat actor is attempting to modify system files for lateral compromise within a host operating system.
