  • analyzing or facilitating analyzing, by a computing device, one or more test failures related to one or more policy tests within a computer network;

    based upon a result of the analyzing of the one or more test failures, creating or facilitating creating, by the computing device, a remediation work order that specifies at least one of the one or more test failures;

    reviewing or facilitating reviewing, by the computing device, each test failure specified within the remediation work order to approve or deny remediation for each test failure;

    wherein the reviewing or facilitating reviewing comprises approving remediation for at least one of the test failures specified within the remediation work order;

    wherein the reviewing or facilitating reviewing further comprises denying remediation for at least one of the test failures specified within the remediation work order and associated with a target host because the remediation would disable security applications or needed business applications on the target host;

    executing or facilitating executing, by the computing device, for each test failure that is approved for remediation, a remediation process that corresponds to a particular test failure that is approved for remediation; and

    remediating, for each test failure that is approved for remediation, the particular test failure.
