Automatic detection and remediation of a noncompliant configuration of an information handling system is disclosed. A determination is made whether a triggering event has occurred that has a potential for degrading compliance of the information handling system. In response to determining that the triggering event has occurred, a configuration scan of the hardware and software of the information handling system is performed to obtain current configuration information. The current configuration information is compared to baseline configuration information that was obtained in response to a previous triggering event. Subsequently, a determination is made as to whether any changes determined in the current configuration information are non-compliant based on a comparison to compliance status information. One or more compliance remediation operations are invoked in response to determining that at least one change is non-compliant.

A method, enterprise information handling system (IHS), and a computer-readable storage medium provide for mitigating a noncompliant configuration of an IHS. A determination is made whether a triggering event has occurred that has a potential for degrading compliance of the enterprise IHS. In response to determining that the triggering event has occurred, a controller performs a configuration scan of the hardware and software of the enterprise IHS to obtain current configuration information. The controller determines changes in the current configuration information based on a comparison of the current configuration information with baseline configuration information that was obtained in response to a previous triggering event. A determination is made whether any changes determined in the current configuration information are non-compliant based on a comparison to compliance status information. The controller enables the enterprise IHS to perform a compliance remediation operation in response to determining that at least one change is non-compliant.
