Viewing Intrusion Alarms
The HSS service displays alarm and event statistics and their summary all on one page. You can have a quick overview of alarms, including the numbers of servers with alarms, handled alarms, unhandled alarms, blocked IP addresses, and isolated files.
The Events page displays the alarm events generated in the last 30 days.
The status of a handled event changes from Unhandled to Handled.

- To skip the checks on high-risk command execution, privilege escalation, reverse shells, abnormal shells, or web shells, manually disable the corresponding policies in the policy groups on the Policies page. HSS will not check the servers associated with disabled policies. For details, see Checking or Creating a Policy Group.
- Other detection items cannot be manually disabled.
- Servers that are not protected by HSS cannot perform alarm-related operations.

Description
Affected Servers
Number of servers for which alarms are generated.
Alarms to be Handled
Number of alarms to be handled.
By default, all unhandled alarms are displayed on the Events page. For more information, see Server Alarm Types.
Handled Alarms
Number of handled alarms.
Blocked IP Addresses
Number of blocked IP addresses. You can click the number to check blocked IP address list.
The blocked IP address list displays the server name, attack source IP address, login type, blocking status, number of blockings, blocking start time, and the latest blocking time.
If a valid IP address is blocked by mistake (for example, after O&M personnel enter incorrect passwords for multiple times), you can manually unblock it. If a server is frequently attacked, you are advised to fix its vulnerabilities in a timely manner and eliminate risks.
NOTICE:- After a blocked IP address is unblocked, HSS will no longer block the operations performed by the IP address.
- A maximum of 10,000 IP addresses can be blocked for each type of software.
If your Linux server does not support ipset, a maximum of 50 IP addresses can be clocked for MySQL and vsftp.
If your Linux server does not support ipset or hosts.deny, a maximum of 50 IP addresses can be blocked for SSH.
Isolated Files
HSS can isolate detected threat files. Files that have been isolated are displayed on a slide-out panel on the Server Alarms page. You can click Isolated Files on the upper right corner to check them.
You can recover isolated files. For details, see Managing Isolated Files.
