What Are the Dependencies and Differences Between SecMaster and Other Security Services?

SecMaster can work with other security services such as WAF, HSS, Anti-DDoS, and DBSS.

How SecMaster Works With Other Services
SecMaster is a security management service that depends on other security services to provide threat detection data so that it can analyze security threat risks, display the global security threat posture, and provide informed suggestions.

Other security services report detected threats to SecMaster and SecMaster aggregates the received data to display the global security posture.
Differences Between SecMaster and Other Security Services
SecMaster: It is only a visualized threat detection and analysis platform and does not implement any specific protective actions. It must be used together with other security services.

Other security services display the event data detected by themselves only. They can take specific protective actions, but cannot display global threat posture.

Table 1 describes the differences between SecMaster and other security protection services.
