Security Score

The security score shows the overall health status of your workloads on the cloud based on the service edition you are using. You can quickly learn about unhandled risks and their threats to your assets.

  • The security score is automatically updated at 02:00 every day. You can also click Check Again to update it immediately.
  • The score ranges from 0 to 100. The higher the security score, the more secure your assets. For details, see Security Score.
  • Different color blocks in the security score ring chart indicate different severity levels. For example, yellow indicates that your security is medium.
  • The security score is updated when you refresh status of the alert incident after risk handling. After you fix the risks, you can click Check Again so that SecMaster can check and score your system again.

    After risks are fixed, manually ignore or handle alert incidents and update the alert incident status in the alert list. The risk severity can be down to a proper level accordingly.

  • The security score reflects the security situation of your system last time you let SecMaster check the system. To obtain the latest score, click Check Again.

Security Monitoring

The Security Monitoring area includes Threat Alarms, Vulnerabilities, and Abnormal Baseline Settings, which sort risks that have not been handled.
