Task Hub

Updated at:

Task Hub provides automated response orchestration capabilities. It allows you to organize repetitive task logic from security event responses into automated handling policies, helping you strengthen system security efficiently. After you create an automated task, Task Hub automatically runs the task on the selected assets in batches. This topic describes how to use Task Hub.

Background information

Task Hub allows you to quickly create automated tasks based on policy templates. After a task is created, it automatically runs batch vulnerability fixing on the selected server assets when the scheduled execution time begins. This helps improve the efficiency of system security hardening. The batch vulnerability fixing task in Task Hub supports fixing Linux vulnerabilities, Windows vulnerabilities, and Web-CMS vulnerabilities.
