Available in Classic and VPC

Security Monitoring is a service that safely protects the customer's service by monitoring external security threats in real time and utilizing an automated security system and specialists that can effectively respond to detected events.

Security Monitoring has basic and managed services. Basic is a free security service provided by default to all customers using the NAVER Cloud Platform. Managed is a paid security service that strongly protects the resources of NAVER Cloud Platform customers 24/7, and it has more advanced monitoring and control services than Basic.

Note

This guide describes how to use Security Monitoring based on the managed service. For a description of the basic service, see Basic Security user guide.

Security Monitoring features

Security Monitoring offers these key features:

  • Intrusion Detection System (IDS): An intrusion detection service that detects malicious attacks attempted against the customer's services that are open to the outside.

  • Web Application Firewall (WAF): A web firewall service that detects and blocks attacking traffic by monitoring web-based (HTTP/HTTPS) traffic.
  • Anti-virus: An anti-virus service for servers that supports the stable operation of the customer's service by detecting, isolating, and deleting malware on servers operated by the customer in real time.

Q. What is the anti-virus pattern update cycle of Security Monitoring?
A. Anti-virus service patterns are updated daily at 1:00 AM and 1:00 PM, and they are immediately applied to real-time monitoring.

Q. What is the penetration test and how can I use it?
A. This refers to performing actions similar to actual attacks to evaluate the security level of the customer's services and resources configured on NAVER Cloud Platform. However, the customer can't perform security evaluations for infrastructure of NAVER Cloud Platform or the NAVER Cloud Platform service itself. For detailed policies on penetration testing and to apply in advance, see Introduction > Security Center > Penetration Test on the NAVER Cloud Platform portal.
