What If I Do Not Upgrade from the HSS (New) Version?

The HSS (Old) can still work properly, until it is completely replaced by the HSS (New) version.

Why You Need to Upgrade to HSS (New)

In the future, the HSS (New) version will replace the HSS (Old) version, which will be brought offline after the replacement.
The HSS (New) version provides new features and enhances existing features, as described in the following table.

**Table 1** Main changes in the HSS (New) version
Feature	Description	Type
Free scan on unprotected servers	HSS periodically scans your unprotected servers and provides reports for you to check online.	New
Asset fingerprint management	HSS deeply scans assets on servers and classifies the assets into different types, such as accounts, ports, processes, web directories, and software information; and display statistics about these types.	New
Asset importance	You can configure asset importance for your servers and perform operations on them in batches, including but not limited to deploying policies, enabling or disabling protection, assigning groups, and installing agents. For details, see Configuring Asset Importance.	New
Application vulnerabilities	HSS scans for vulnerabilities in web services, web frameworks, websites, middleware, and kernel modules. For more information, see Viewing Details of a Vulnerability.	New
Baseline report export	You can filter and export the check results of baseline configurations and common weak passwords.	New
Application protection	To protect running applications, you simply need to add probes to these applications, without having to modify application files. Detectable risks include but are not limited to SQL injections, command injections, deserialization input, file traversal, and JSP execution of OS commands. For more information, see Enabling Application Protection.	New
Agent installation	You can install agents in batches in a few clicks. For more information, see Batch Installing Agents.	New
Protection quota management	You can directly upgrade an earlier version to a later version. For more information, see Protection Quota Management.	New
Baseline check	You can select baseline check items to assess whether your system meets compliance requirements. For more information, see Managing Baseline Check Policies.	New
Alarm management	Ransomware and reverse shells can be isolated and killed. Alarms can be generated for the exploits of common vulnerabilities and Redis, Hadoop, and MySQL vulnerabilities. For more information, see Server Alarm Events.	New
Security report	You can customize the report period, content, and sending time. For more information, see Subscribing to a Security Report.	Upgrade
Ransomware detection	HSS monitors new files and running processes in real time, dynamically generates honeypot files to lure and remove ransomware, and periodically backs up servers based on user-defined policies. For more information, see Enabling Ransomware Prevention.	Upgrade
Container protection	The original Container Guard Service (CGS) has been integrated into the HSS (New) version to manage server workloads in a unified manner.	Integration
