How Do I Scan My Servers?

The HSS service detects risks and abnormal operations on servers in real time and performs a comprehensive scan for the servers every early morning. In addition, you can conduct manual detections to check key configuration information on servers.

The manual detection can detect risky software, vulnerabilities, web shells, weak passwords, and key configurations.

Notice

At least a three-minute interval is required between two manual detections for the same item.

Prerequisites

The Agent Status of the server is Online, the Protection Status is Enabled, and the Edition is Enterprise or Premium.

Check Items

HSS will scan your servers for software information, Linux software vulnerabilities, Windows system vulnerabilities, Web-CMS vulnerabilities, web shells, password risks, and unsafe settings configuration.

Scan Duration

  • The scan for a single item (such as password risks) takes less than 30 minutes.
  • A comprehensive manual scan takes less than 30 minutes. Items are scanned concurrently.

Performing a Manual Detection with One Click

Performing a manual detection with one click can detect risky software information, vulnerabilities, web shells, key configuration information, weak password complexity policies, and accounts using weak passwords on the servers. After the detection is complete, you can view overall risk statistics or the details of a single server on the HSS console.
