Performing a Scheduled Baseline Check

Scenarios

SecMaster can check whether your assets have risks based on baseline check plans. By default, every three days SecMaster automatically performs a baseline check on related assets in the current region under your account from 00:00 to 06:00 in accordance with compliance pack Cloud Security Compliance Check 1.0. This function is enabled by default. So there are no manual actions required.

You can customize the automatic inspection period, time, and scope to create custom check plans.

This document describes how to create a custom baseline check plan.

Limitations and Constraints

• A compliance pack can be added to only one check plan.
• SecMaster cannot execute check plans that include manual check items. So do not add compliance packs that include manual check items to a check plan. There are manual check items in DJCP 2.0 Level 3 Requirements and General Data Protection Regulation compliance packs.
• Baseline inspection for OS Configuration Baseline, Common Weak Password Detection, and Password Complexity Policy Detection compliance packs are performed in HSS instead of SecMaster. However, you can view check results in SecMaster. If you need to perform HSS baseline inspection, go to the HSS console and complete the inspection. For details, see Performing Baseline Inspection on HSS.
• Auto check items in Cloud Security Compliance Check 1.0, Network Security, and Huawei Cloud Security Configuration compliance packs are supported.
• The default check plan can be enabled or disabled only. No changes on its compliance packs or execution time can be made.
