Increasing Asset Quotas

SA allows you to increase ECS Quota and change required duration at any time after you make a purchase.

Constraints

  • The ECS quota is the total number of ECSs that are authorized to receive checks. The maximum ECS quota varies depending on how many ECSs you have.
    Table 1 Maximum ECS quota

    ECSs Within Your Account

    Maximum ECS Quota

    10 and below

    100

    Above 10

    Quantity of ECSs within your account multiplied by 10

    For example, if you have 20 ECSs within your account, the maximum ECS quota you can configure is 200 (20 x 10).
  • When buying SA, ensure that the ECS quota is greater than or equal to the total number of ECSs you have within your current account. If you configure ECS quota to a number smaller than the number of ECSs you have, the following impact may occur:

    A lack of awareness of the threats to ECSs that are not covered by SA. This may cause server risks such as data leakage.
