Updated CIS Checklist for Ubuntu 14.04 LTS Benchmark with a bugfix

Security Benchmark:
CIS Ubuntu Linux 14.04 LTS Benchmark, v2.0.0

Published Sites:
CIS Checklist for Ubuntu 14.04 LTS Server, site version 8
(The site version is provided for air-gap customers.)

Details:
Fixed and improved implementation for the following check:

• Deploy and Run CIS Ubuntu Linux 14

Earlier there was a problem with awk command, which was printing all the details about the particular mounts.
Because of this, BigFix client evaluation cycle was slow for the Deploy and Run Task.
Now as per our new modification it is printing and passing only the mount points to the find command which checks mounts without any user/group.
