An XCCDF Rule

Description

The libreswan package provides an implementation of IPsec and IKE, which permits the creation of secure tunnels over untrusted networks. The libreswan package can be installed with the following command:

$ sudo dnf install libreswan

Rationale

Providing the ability for remote users or systems to initiate a secure VPN connection protects information when it is transmitted over a wide area network.
