HSS
What Is HSS?
Host Security Service (HSS) helps you identify and manage the assets on your servers, eliminate risks, and defend against intrusions and web page tampering. There are also advanced protection and security operations functions available to help you easily detect and handle threats.
After installing the HSS agent on your ECSs, you will be able to check the ECS security status and risks in a region on the HSS console.
How Do I Use HSS?
Before using the HSS service, install the agent on your ECS. For details, see sections "Installing an Agent" and "Enabling HSS" in the Host Security Service User Guide.
How Do I Check Host Security Statuses?
On the Server tab, you can view the ECS security statuses in the current region.
- Log in to the management console.
- Click
and choose Security > Host Security Service. - Go to the Servers page to view the protection status of the target servers.
