Yes, and it shouldn't be too hard to port this to FreeBSD, but possibly 
time consuming.

The benefit of porting it is that they already have a lot of security 
policies <https://www.open-scap.org/security-policies/>; written (eg. 
USGCB, PCI DSS). Scanning and remedying Linux and FreeBSD systems for 
vulnerabilities could be done using the same XML file. Also, you can use 
their installer plugin 
<https://www.open-scap.org/tools/oscap-anaconda-addon/>; to set security 
profiles during install.
