Plain packages

Packages for all supported platforms are at downloads.cinc.sh/files/stable/cinc-auditor/.

Container image

We publish a cincproject/auditor container image on Docker Hub — a drop-in replacement for chef/inspec, well-suited for CI pipelines. See Container images for tagging scheme and usage examples.

As part of Workstation

Cinc Auditor is also included in Cinc Workstation.

Profiles

Cinc Auditor profiles are 100% compatible with their upstream counterparts.

Usage

cinc-auditor and its associated tools are fully compatible with inspec. A wrapper named inspec is installed and redirects to cinc-auditor, so existing automation keeps working.

All upstream documentation and Chef classes apply.
