Shouldn't this give an indication as to where to find Stigs? And note there's Stigs for Postgresql and for EDB Postgres Advanced Server (at least)

| TDE encrypts the entire database at the file level. While not natively supported in PostgreSQL, tools like pgcrypto and external software can implement TDE. | ||

What's pgTDE? It sounds like a predecessor of the TDE extensions in PGE and EPAS? pg_tde is an experimental percona extension while pgtde seems to be a VMware propietary extension. pgcrypto is not TDE though, it's column level encryption.
TDE transparently encrypts the entire database at the file level. While not natively supported in PostgreSQL, EDB Postgres Extended Server and EDB Postgres Advanced Server both support TDE. For PostgreSQL itself, extensions are available which can implement TDE.
