(Reporter Lu Zhen) Just past 2021, a series of heavyweight network security laws and regulations have been intensively introduced, focusing on network construction planning, security protection, security management, risk assessment and other aspects. Recently, the Cyberspace Administration of China and 13 other departments jointly revised and issued the "Measures for Network Security Review", focusing on consolidating the main responsibility of platform operators for network security. At present, the network security industry has become an outlet, and in the information society where network security continues to attract attention, all parties in the industrial chain, including telecom operators, will shoulder the mission of network security and promote the high-quality development of information and communication technology and network security industry in the mainland.
Industrial development policy dividends continue to release the network security industry windward outlet
The development of the network security industry is the foundation for the stability, orderliness and strong guarantee of the national cyberspace. At present, the digital economy has become a new engine for rapid economic and social development, giving birth to new demand for network security technology and industrial development.
In recent years, the development of the mainland's network security industry has maintained an overall trend of rapid growth. According to the "China Network Security Industry Analysis Report (2021)", it is predicted that the network security market will maintain a growth rate of more than 15% in the next three years, and the market size will exceed 80 billion yuan by 2023. It can be said that at the moment when society realizes digital transformation, the network security industry has great potential and will continue to be actively concerned by the capital market in the future.
The Cybersecurity Review Measures will come into force on 15 February 2022 and will become an important part of mainland cybersecurity legislation, along with a series of heavyweight cybersecurity laws and regulations previously introduced. The continuous introduction of these policies and regulations is constantly activating the new momentum of the development of the network security industry, providing institutional basis for network security, and becoming an external driving force to promote the development of the network security industry.
Operators increase the network security industry to help the information society run smoothly
Network security is an important part of the overall national security concept and the strategic cornerstone of national security in the information age, and it is imperative to continue to develop the network security industry. As an important force in the construction of new infrastructure, operators have an important position and a huge role in the network security industry, leading the development of the industrial chain.
Among them, China Telecom has always taken network information security as the top priority. Recently launched the Tianyi Security Brain, in view of the need for protection, through intelligent, active and collaborative full-time operation mode, to meet the government and enterprise customers to improve the protection capabilities of all scenarios. Its self-developed "Cloud Causeway Platform" has become the only network attack protection platform in China with full network coverage capabilities and global accessibility capabilities.
In terms of China Unicom, it regards "big connection, big computing, big data, big application, big security" as the main business, and builds the active security capability and product system of "cloud, management and end" to provide all-round, intelligent and one-stop security services for the Internet, mobile Internet and other fields.
In terms of China Mobile, in 2021, it purchased a total of 1156 projects containing the word "security", and set up a special agency to strengthen the overall coordination of information security management, and independently developed and launched a mobile phone information security software "Antivirus Pioneer".
The network security industry will form a new path for development
With the integration and development of a new generation of information technology such as 5G, cloud computing, big data, and artificial intelligence, people's production and lifestyle have been greatly changed, how can the network security industry form a new development path?
First of all, it is necessary to make overall plans for the layout and accelerate the formation of an industrial pattern. Coordinate the layout from the local level, and actively create a national network security industry base, so as to radiate and drive the network security industry, and accelerate the formation of an innovation-driven source and a model place for the integration of industry and city.
Secondly, it is necessary to mobilize the enthusiasm of enterprises in scientific and technological innovation and transformation, take the backbone enterprises of network security as the industry leader, focus on cultivating well-known enterprises in network security, and give full play to the leading role.
Finally, we should closely follow the development trend of the national network security industry, strengthen the protection of key information infrastructure, accelerate the breakthrough of core technology of network security, realize the autonomy and controllability of core technology, and create high-quality local network security products.
