What makes you chose ansible instead of a debian package applying your
scripts and configurations?

I didn't want to create a new distribution, I wanted scripts to configure a bare distribution, that anyone could maintain using the standard Debian procedures afterwards.

Also, if you have a look to the solution, you will see that the integration between all the packages is not appropriate to the packages modification.

There is some debian packages for internal checks: rkhunter, tiger,
lynis, checksecurity, john, etc
Also OpenVAS https://openvas.org/ (fork from nessus) and other tools in
Kali Linux (debian-based)
