Change and Impact
To provide you with stronger risk detection and closed-loop remediation capabilities, the "Agentless Detection" capability of Security Center will be progressively switched to "Agentic Agentless Detection" starting September 10, 2026. Building on the existing scanning capability, this upgrade adds the following two capabilities:
Parallel Sandbox Analysis: A security Agent autonomously investigates and traces attack paths based on the complete system context, covering dimensions such as vulnerability root-cause remediation, baseline configuration hardening, and intrusion artifact cleanup, and delivers a remediation and hardening report tailored to your actual deployment environment rather than a generic fix template.
Intelligent Vulnerability Remediation: Provides one-click intelligent remediation for detected application and system vulnerabilities, and automatically generates a remediated custom secure image, extending "risk discovery" into "closed-loop remediation".
