Viewing and Handling Ransomware Protection Events
After ransomware protection is enabled, if a ransomware attack event occurs on the server, the event will be recorded and displayed in the ransomware event list. You can handle the events based on your service requirements.
Prerequisites
You have enabled HSS premium, WTP, or container edition.
Constraints
After ransomware protection is enabled, you need to handle ransomware alarms and fix the vulnerabilities in your systems and middleware in a timely manner.
Viewing and Handling Ransomware Prevention Events

- In the upper left corner of the page, select a region, click , and choose Security & Compliance > HSS.

Description
Action
- Mark as handled
For a manually handled event, you can add remarks to record the details about the event.
- Ignore
Ignore the current alarm. Any new alarms of the same type will still be reported by HSS.
- Add to Alarm Whitelist
Add false alarmed items to the login whitelist.
HSS will no longer report alarm on the whitelisted items. A whitelisted alarm will not trigger alarms.
After adding an alarm to the alarm whitelist, you can customize a whitelist rule. The custom rule types vary depending on the alarm types, including the file path, process path, process command line, remote IP address, and user name. By default, HSS automatically fills in the rule based on the alarm summary. You can modify the rule as required. If a detected alarm event hit the rule you specified, HSS does not generate an alarm.
- Isolate and kill
If a program is isolated and killed, it will be terminated immediately and no longer able to perform read or write operations. Isolated source files of programs or processes are displayed on the Isolated Files slide-out panel and cannot harm your servers.
You can click Isolated Files on the upper right corner to check the files. For details, see Managing Isolated Files.
NOTE:When a program is isolated and killed, the process of the program is terminated immediately. To avoid impact on services, check the detection result, and cancel the isolation of or unignore misreported malicious programs (if any).
Batch Handle
If this option is selected, the same alarms triggered at different time are handled in batches. If no duplicate alarm is displayed after you select it, it indicates no duplicate alarms have been generated.
Remarks
You can add remarks for convenient backtracking.
- Mark as handled
- Click OK.
