On the Server(s) tab of the Assets page in the Security Center console, you can run security checks on a specific server to detect vulnerabilities, baseline risks, and webshells. You can also run security checks to collect asset fingerprints, such as information about ports, software, processes, accounts, and middleware. This topic describes how to run security checks on your servers.

Background information

Only the users of Security Center Basic Anti-Virus, Advanced, and Enterprise can use the security check feature. If you use Security Center Basic, you must upgrade Security Center to the Basic Anti-Virus, Advanced, or Enterprise edition before you can use this feature.
Notice If you run security checks on your server, Security Center detects vulnerabilities, baseline risks, and webshells, and collects asset fingerprints at the same time. In this case, the CPU utilization and memory usage of your server increase, which may affect your workloads. The check may take 1 to 5 minutes. To avoid service interruptions, we recommend that you perform this operation during off-peak hours.
