I think that question is a little backwards.

Certain tools are more likely to be used by people working in spaces where they should/must be less trusting.

If there was a tool (there is) to scan my platform deployment against some NCSC/NSA guidance for platform security, and I wanted to use it, I'm likely operating in a space that should consider being cautious about running random tools I find on the internet.
