Change and Impact
To provide you with more powerful threat detection capabilities, the Cloud Security Center "Malicious File Detection (Pay-As-You-Go)" capability will be progressively migrated to "Agentic Malicious File Detection" starting September 2, 2026. Building on the existing detection capabilities, this upgrade adds the following three new detection capabilities:
- AI Large Model Detection: Leverages large models to deeply understand file semantics and behavioral intent, effectively identifying new types of malware and advanced variant threats that traditional engines struggle to detect.
- Skill File Detection: Adds dedicated detection for Skill-type files, covering more file formats and attack scenarios.
- NAS File Detection: Adds detection support for files in NAS (file storage), helping you discover malware stored in NAS and safeguard the security of your file storage environment.
