Just catching up on email for the last month.

I took a quick look at this site and wondered what it's all about.

When I think of benchmarks, I think of specs that tell how something
is performing.  But if this is about security, I would expect it
would have best practices for securing servers.  Is that what they
mean by a benchmark?

I'd like a better description of what they provide before I sign up
for an account.  So...what exactly do they provide?
