Problem to solve

When I run generate_guidance.py -p ..., a number of .mobileprofile-files will be generated. I'm using CIS Level 2 as a baseline which leads to 17 domain specific .mobileprofile files. As it it cumbersome to install so many profiles manually on a Mac without an MDM, it seems to be appropriate to generate a consolidated .mobileconfig-file as well.

Intended users

Users, who want to apply the .mobileconfig files directly.

Further details

see https://github.com/usnistgov/macos_security/discussions/521

Proposal

Generate a consolidated .mobileconfig file in addition to domain specific ones.

Documentation

Testing

What does success look like, and how can we measure that?

A file {baseline_name}.mobileconfig is generated.
