Cisco Bussines 350 series CIS security benchmark

Here’s a translation for an English forum:

Hi,

I'm trying to configure a Cisco Business 350 switch to meet the CIS security certification requirements. However, the CIS benchmark document for Cisco provides commands that aren't valid for this switch model because the CBS350 has a different syntax.

Does anyone know of any CIS document or a way to pass this security certification with this switch?

Additionally, I'm encountering an issue where many commands accepted by the switch don’t appear in the running configuration output. This happens even if I use show running in detail (show running all).

Thanks

 - It probably can't be done for this small business oriented device because the OS is not mentioned in :

   If there would be a business need then contact Cisco according to these info's:

I don't think there is any benchmark available for the CBS series of switches. The closest you'll get is to "translate" the commands in the existing benchmark to what the CBS devices accept, but the result of this won't be equivalent to running it against supported devices. You should probably look at getting supported devices if you need to run the benchmark to assert CIS certification compliance.
