The Security Center agent provides real-time security protection for your servers by running core processes and plug-ins. This topic describes the supported operating systems and kernel versions for the Security Center agent and its plug-ins.
Overview
The agent uses core processes, such as data collection and the endpoint engine, to provide the basic mitigation capabilities of Security Center. The runtime environment for these core processes depends on specific operating system versions but is not limited by the kernel version. The core processes are described as follows:
AliYunDunMonitor: Provides host security monitoring and detection.AliSecCheck: Dynamically detects threats such as mining viruses, trojans, and web shells. It also provides features such as baseline checks, vulnerability scans, vulnerability remediation, and Asset Fingerprints collection.
The agent supports protection plug-ins, such as
AliNet,AliHips, andAliWebGuard, that enhance protection for the host's network, processes, and files. These plug-ins or features, such as client self-protection and anti-ransomware, have strict compatibility requirements for the server's operating system and kernel version.
