Ensure that Security Center agent is installed on all servers provisioned within your Alibaba Cloud account. Installing the agent on your servers enhances overall security by providing real-time threat detection, vulnerability assessment, and centralized security management, helping to identify and mitigate potential risks to your cloud infrastructure.
In Alibaba Cloud, server protection requires the installation of an agent on the server for functionality. This agent-based approach enables Security Center to deliver a broader range of server endpoint intrusion detection and protection capabilities. These capabilities include remote logon detection, webshell detection and removal, anomaly detection (identifying abnormal process behaviors and network connections), and the detection of alterations in key files and suspicious accounts within systems and applications.
