Tips for securing VM?

Hello there! I'm part of a nationwide group where many teams from different states are given multiple vm's (with different operating systems) and we have to patch vulnerabilities on the system. My job is Windows and it involves setting a password for everyone, filtering admins/authorized users, using a template for security policies, going through files, deleting unauthorized files, etc. I use Microsoft Baseline Analyzer as it gives a HUGE edge but I was wondering if anyone has any other tools such as Baseline Analyzer. Thanks!
If you're part of a company and can afford it, have you looked into the Nessus vulnerability scanner from Tenable? I used that thing everyday in my last job and it was pretty cool.

Not part of a company, I'm a high schooler participating in a nationwide event where we secure VM's.
