The comparative advantages of Tencent Cloud Workload Protection Platform and other host security products are shown in the following table:
Strengths | Tencent Cloud Workload Protection Platform (CWPP) | Other Host Security Products |
Hacker behavior detection | Based on Tencent's network-wide threat data sources, real-time detection of hacker attack behaviors. | Based on single-machine behavior data for judgment, weak detection capability, unable to respond quickly. |
Trojan file detection | The backend integrates Tencent PC manager's new generation TAV anti-virus engine and hubble analysis system, responding quickly to unknown risks. The WebShell detection engine based on machine learning effectively combats encrypted and deformed malicious scripts. | Lack of detection capability for executable malicious files, high risk of false alarms and missed reports when detecting WebShell based on regular expressions and character logic matching. |
Installation-free, maintenance-free | Automatically associate Cloud Platform server Ops information, proceed to purchase a CVM and you can use the relevant information immediately. Security policies are automatically updated on the cloud, eliminating the need for Manual Maintenance of various security detection script files. | Requires the user to log in to the server for manual installation, and a person with certain security technical capability to configure security policies. |
Centralized Ops | Security events can be centrally managed in the console, eliminating the trouble of logging into multiple servers. Host assets are centrally managed, quickly building a security visualization Ops platform. | Need to log in to the server to handle individual security events. |
Low resource occupation | Self-developed lightweight Agent. The vast majority of computations and protections are carried out on the cloud, resulting in low resource consumption for servers. | The software client has high memory usage, generally consuming more than 100MB, which can affect server performance during peak business hours. |
