My personal project goal is to work on scripts and Puppet content to meet STIG requirements. I'm not really talented enough to putz around with the kernel stuff but don't object if others do.

What kind of scripts are you looking for and need? There are several out there for STIG requirements so I was wondering if they could be used.

I've used Aqueduct, and wrote some of them. Working on implementing a newer project and focusing on Puppet code as that's what I'm need to learn most. Still getting a handle on what all is out there.

It might be easier to look at the tooling mentioned here https://access.redhat.com/comment/913583#comment-913583 (thanks Akemi for pointing it out) and assessing the level of effort needed to make that work for CentOS.
Red Hat seems to not be putting a lot of work into RHEL 5 STIG compliance. That's been one of my motivators.

EL5 dies in a year and a half or so, and has several outstanding (minor to medium) cve's presently. I'm absolutely fine with ignoring it until it goes away as well.
There are a lot of RHEL 5 boxes in production. Any solution that doesn't take it into account isn't a solution for me.

RHEL5 _extended_ life cycle support goes into 2020.

Oh I know there are tons of el5 boxen. From the project side we'll continue to provide for them. From a personal side, I'm just not interested in el5 anymore.

Understood. I'm not against RHEL 7 stuff but don't use it personally. ;)
The part that grates on me most is that RH isn't hyped about supporting RHEL 5 much. There are large, paying, installs that could use SCAP, but can't. Thus their SCAP tool is kinda wimpy.
