Viewing and Configuring Defense Policies

Scenario

This section describes how to view and configure defense policies.

There are seven defense lines, physical, identity, server, maintenance, data, application, and network defense lines.

Table 1 Seven layers of defense and types of protected assets

Defense Layer Type

Protection Solution

Description

Protected Asset Type

Physical security

--

The cloud service provider is responsible for the physical equipment room security

--

Network security

Anti-DDoS Service (AAD)

This solution mitigates DDoS attacks in milliseconds to ensure continuity of your global services based on machine learning, protection policy tuning, and precise identification of DDoS attacks.

Elastic Load Balance (ELB) and Elastic IP (EIP)

Cloud Firewall (CFW)

Cloud Firewall (CFW) protects Internet borders on the cloud and at VPC borders. It can detect and defend against intrusions in real time, control traffic in a unified manner, analyze traffic and visualize results, audit logs, and trace traffic sources. You can scale CFW resources as needed.

Virtual Private Cloud (VPC)

Application security

Web Application Firewall (WAF)

WAF can check and protect website service traffic from multiple dimensions. WAF can intelligently identify malicious request features and defend against unknown threats based on deep machine learning.

Websites and IP addresses

Server security

Host Security Service (HSS)

HSS is designed to protect server workloads in hybrid clouds and multi-cloud data centers. It protects servers and containers and prevents web pages from malicious modifications.

Elastic Cloud Server (ECS) and Cloud Container Engine (CCE)

The defense layers for the identity, data, and O&M security have not been rolled out.

    Figure 2 Defense Layer Policies

  6. View defense policy statistics.

    • Health Score: indicates the current health status of resources.

      The score ranges from 0 to 100. A larger score indicates a lower risk and higher asset security. For details about the security scores, see Security Overview and Situation Overview.

    • Total Assets: displays how many assets, high-risk assets, and assets at other risk levels you have.
    • Threat alarm, vulnerability, and baseline check statistics: display unhandled threat alarms, unfixed vulnerabilities, and risky baseline settings.
      • Threat Alarm: Displays threat alarms that have not been handled in the last seven days.
      • Vulnerability Risk: Displays the top 5 types of vulnerabilities in assets and the total number of vulnerabilities that have not been fixed in the last seven days.
      • Baseline Risk: displays resources by risk severity, including critical, high, medium, low, and informational levels, based on the latest baseline inspection results.
    • SecMaster Protection Overview: displays the protection status and resource information in the seven defense lines.
      • In the seven defense line area, you can click the icon of a defense line to view the protection products and protection statistics of the defense line.
      • You can view the resource statistics in the resource area.
