## pgdsat - PostgreSQL Database Security Assessment Tool

pgdsat is a security assessment tool that checks around 80 PostgreSQL security
controls of your PostgreSQL clusters including all recommendations from the
CIS compliance benchmark but not only.

This PostgreSQL Security Assessment Tool allow assessments to be carried out
in an automated manner to verify the security policies established inside the
company. It also gives understanding of the security issued that your cluster
can be faced.

This release fixes several issues reported by users since last release and adds
a new feature:

  * Add option `-r | --remove` to specify checks to remove from the report,
    it can be used multiple time. The value must be the number of a check
    or a regexp.

    on some RPM based distribution.
