Baseline Inspection includes password complexity policy detection, common weak password detection, and configuration check. It can detect insecure password configurations and risky configurations in key software on servers, and provide rectification suggestions for detected risks, helping you correctly handle risky configurations on servers.

Usage Process

**Table 1** Usage process
No.	Operation	Description
1	Performing baseline inspection	The baseline inspection supports automatic and manual baseline checks. Automatic baseline check: automatically performs a check for all server configurations and common weak passwords at 01:00 every day. Premium edition, web tamper protection edition, and container edition allow you to customize the automatic detection period for configurations and common weak passwords. For details, see Configuration Check and Weak Password Scan. Manual baseline inspection: To view the real-time baseline risks of a specified server, you can manually perform a baseline inspection.
2	Viewing and processing baseline inspection results	After the baseline inspection is complete, you need to view and handle baseline configuration risks.
