Please log in for more thread options Not really. The built in templates should never be used. They are
inappropriate for just about every purpose. They are not designed to a
specific threat model. The likelihood that they will meet your threat model
is very low. You should use the security guides to develop a security
strategy that meets your needs. The one-size-fits-all approach that the
built-in templates were designed for does not work. SCW was actually designed
specifically to create a more customized approach to security.
