In the past two years, a series of laws and regulations on information security have been intensively introduced. The data security and system security situation in the fields of data centers, cloud services, and mobile phones has also ushered in great changes. But this is clearly not the end of information security. Because in addition to data centers, cloud services and mobile phones, the security of PC terminals such as notebooks is also worthy of attention. And because these products still play a central role in the corporate office space, data security protection needs more attention.
However, the reality is that in addition to installing firewalls, traffic monitoring systems and VPNs for office networks, enterprises can only use traditional antivirus software and security protection software to solve the security pain of notebooks. However, the experience and effect of these software is hard to describe...
Traditional security software, do not have to worry, use the worry
People who have used third-party security software on their laptops must have encountered these situations: high CPU memory usage of the software, stuttering, fan spins, rapid power failure, good and bad protection effects, advertising pop-ups, software bundling, and so on. In short, these traditional security methods in the form of software are difficult to provide a good security and use experience.
The reasons for these phenomena are not difficult to understand.
The protection effect is uneven: the notebook architecture seems simple, but it is not easy to achieve comprehensive protection, and the protection of firmware, drivers, OS, connections, applications and many other fields is indispensable. When there are more defense directions, the technical requirements for traditional security vendors will naturally become higher.
CPU memory occupancy is high, running caton, fans spin wildly, power down quickly: as a software built on the operating system, all operations of antivirus and security protection software need to be translated by various frameworks and OS layers before they can be performed by the CPU; and with the increase in data volume and the increase in the field of consideration, antivirus and security software naturally has a greater burden on the system. And these burdens are reflected at the system level
Ad pop-ups, software bundling: At present, most traditional security software has moved to a free form. But security software companies also need revenue to continue operating, so functions outside the core business, such as advertising and software bundling, are inevitable. Although you no longer need to purchase a license, the experience degradation and performance degradation brought about by the free model are really headaches for enterprises and users.
The development of antivirus and various types of security software has been going on for decades, but these persistent diseases have always existed. If you want to solve it completely, the best way is to change your thinking and use a soft and hard way to achieve a lighter security experience and a stronger security effect.
But does such a notebook product really exist?
In the past, this question was indeed difficult to answer. Now, the Landun Girder Light Security Notebook launched by Chuzhi Technology, a veteran of the storage industry, is a product designed with this idea.
Part III: Thin and light and "light and safe" complement each other
Yes, Lan Dun Da Liang is a notebook; more precisely, Lan Dun Da Liang is an ultra-thin and light notebook that combines a data encryption chip and corresponding software into one.
As the core of the solution, Lan Dun Girder is equipped with a Hualan micro-security chip with independent intellectual property rights. The chip is installed inside the notebook in the form of an SSD master, which can allow the data to be encrypted before it is dropped. While providing standard AES, DES, RSA encryption algorithms, the chip also supports SM2/3/4 and other national secret algorithms, which can meet the needs of ordinary commercial users and meet the hard compliance requirements of sensitive departments such as government and finance, with a wide range of adaptability.
In addition, the solution provides hardware-level data hard hiding and destruction capabilities. Because the security chip assumes the SSD master function, which is also the only way for the OS, BIOS, and firmware to access the hard disk data; therefore, the hidden data cannot be obtained at the OS layer or the BIOS layer, and the destroyed data cannot be recovered by various types of software. This further improves the effectiveness and level of protection.
Compared with the traditional software-only solution, the Landun Girder solution focuses more on data encryption, stealth and destruction. This also provides multiple advantages for users.
First of all, for enterprise users, the hardware part of the notebook is not the core asset of the enterprise, and the data stored in the hard disk is. Therefore, the landun girder light security notebook that is encrypted can provide extremely strong security protection effects.
Secondly, because the computing tasks related to encryption and decryption are mainly completed by Hualan micro-security chips, various security operations will not place additional burdens on the CPU and memory. The resulting CPU computing power, memory space, battery level and cooling margin can be used to ensure the user's daily office experience. In other words, the Landun Girder Light Security Notebook can achieve a balance between the lightweight experience and the hardcore safety effect of performance, energy efficiency, heat dissipation, battery life and many other dimensions.
For this set of soft and hardware solutions with both effect and efficiency, the launch of this product's Chuzhi Technology also helps us think of a more appropriate name - Xiaozhi Space!
Chuzhi Technology is an enterprise focusing on providing users with a series of security products and solutions from the end to the cloud, with more than 10 years of technical accumulation, good service capabilities and user reputation in the field of data security. The application of enterprise-level security technology to the notebook end this time seems to be a bit of a crooked skill tree, but in fact, it is lightweight and easy.
Part IV: Be safe, but also have a business mindset
Although it focuses on data encryption and various security functions, the core of Landun Daliang is still a notebook for office and business scenarios. So, before we get into his performance in data security, let's take a look at his basic configuration by the standards of a business notebook.
Whether it is a 14-inch body or an all-metal body, this Chuzhilan Shield girder has a clear business temperament. The weight of 1.45KG and the thickness of 15.6mm also make Landun Girder easy to perform various field tasks. Although the 1920*1080 14-inch screen is decent in terms of specifications, the fully fitted process, the SRGB color gamut of up to 100% and the 5mm narrow bezels on both sides can still bring a good experience for daily business office.
In terms of performance, the Landun girder directly fills up the parameters. The 10th-generation Core i7 low-voltage quad-core processor strikes a good balance between performance and battery life, and the 40W charger is small and lightweight enough. And 16GB of RAM is also enough to cope with the pressure of various office software and a large number of browser windows. At the same time, Landun Daliang also provides 10 generations of Core i3, i5 and Mega Core quad-core processors to choose from, and in addition to the traditional Win10, the OS can also choose to install domestic operating systems such as Tongxin UOS, Zhongbiao Kirin, and Zhongke Fangde; to meet the needs of Xinchuang and compliance.
Due to the use of TDP 15W's low-power processor and single fan design, the notebook is almost inaudible under daily low load conditions, and even when running with full load, the human noise is only 37.4dB, and the silence effect is outstanding. At room temperature of 21.5 degrees, the CPU full load temperature is 68 degrees, and the maximum temperature of the keyboard part is only 35 degrees Celsius, and a long time full load will not bring discomfort to the office.
In terms of expansion capabilities, the 3 USB Type-A, 1 USB Type-C and a MicroSD card reader equipped with Landun Girder provide strong adaptability for notebooks, and multiple devices are connected at the same time without frequent plugging and reversing. The USB Type-C equipped with the notebook also supports the charging function, so all kinds of gallium nitride chargers in the hands of the user can also play a greater performance (special note, when using a third-party gallium nitride charger, the user should pay attention to the charger output power and the cable used should meet the needs of the notebook).
At the same time, HDMI and 3.5mm audio output also allow this notebook to adapt to various meeting scenarios.
The notebook is equipped with a full-size backlit keyboard and provides a 1.3mm key range on the thin and light body, which can bring a good input experience, and there is no obvious fatigue caused by long-term text input. On the other hand, due to the better width than the 13.3-inch product, Landun Girder also provides an additional list of function keys, including up and down page turning, home, END buttons, which can improve the work efficiency of text a lot.
The shortcoming-free design of the basic configuration allows Landun Girder to easily cope with the daily office needs of enterprise employees.
In the PCMARK 10 test, Lan Dun Girder scored 6464 points and 6034 points in the basic performance and productivity tests, respectively. Therefore, in the absence of a discrete graphics card, its total score has also reached 3363 points, indicating that Landun Girder can easily perform various office scenarios.
In the Cinebench R20 test, which tests the CPU performance more, Lan Dun Da Liang has achieved multi-core 1105 and single-core 395 points, which belongs to the normal performance of core 10th-generation i7 low-voltage processors.
Part V: The safe and light experience that can stand up to the girder
The "Xiaozhi Space", which integrates various security functions, is the core selling point of Landun Girder and a powerful cornerstone of data security.
The included USB key tray can only be used with various functions when inserted
After the software deployment is completed, Xiaozhi Space will automatically start with the system. Since all kinds of irreversible data operations are involved, when the software starts, the user must enter a pre-set password and insert a USB key tray; both are indispensable.
In terms of functions, Xiaozhi Space provides many functions such as shadowless secret room, port management, backup/restore, data encryption, data destruction, security log, etc., and provides setting options and support on phone and documentation. Let's take a look at these specific features.
Shadowless Secret Room is one of the core functions of Lan Dun Girder Light Security Notebook. Taking the notebook under test as an example, we set up a "shadowless room" space with a size of 99GB on the 512GB hard disk, and the system drive letter is D disk. Until whitelisting privileges are granted, this space is not perceived by this computer (i.e., the most core Explorer .exe process in the Window system), disk space management, CMD terminals, and various applications. Only after turning on app permissions or turning off the manual acceleration option can the app discover the hidden D drive.
Even if we use AIDA 64 to view hard disk hardware information, we can only find 365GB of space. Because Hualan Micro's Landun chip (that is, the SageMicro identified in the screenshot) provides storage services for all upper-layer systems, even with PE, DiskGenius, or other lower-level tools, the information in the shadowless secret room is still unreadable.
And such an unbreakable shadowless secret room is the biggest advantage of Lan Dun's girder soft and hard integration scheme.
In addition, the shadowless secret room also provides multiple locking mechanisms such as manual locking, remote locking, automatic locking, and black and white lists, which are convenient to cope with the needs of different scenarios.
It should be noted here that even if manual encryption is removed, applications in the blacklist will still get an error message when trying to read files in the shadowless chamber. Applications that are neither whitelisted nor blacklisted (and their associated programs) can open the file correctly, but will receive a pop-up reminder from Xiaozhi Space. This setting allows users and O&M personnel to effectively perceive the reading operations of malicious processes in the background to read files, which is very thoughtful.
With a lock, Explorer .exe process cannot discover shadowless space
After unlocking, the shadowless chamber can be discovered by various processes
Xiaozhi Space also provides port management functions. The port closed in the Xiaozhi space is not simply disabled at the system level, but at the physical level, the communication between the port hardware and the system is isolated. In other words, the port that is closed by Xiaozhi Space cannot find the corresponding master hardware at the system level. As a result, the Landun Girder notebook equipped with Xiaozhi Space can cope with any complex external environment, making it indestructible and foolproof.
Since it is a data-oriented security solution, backup and recovery are naturally essential basic functions. Xiaozhi Space allows users to use an external device bound by encryption to back up and restore data in notebooks or shadowless secret rooms.
When backing up, Xiaozhi Space also provides three different backup strategies to choose from, such as specified addresses, incremental backups, and full backups, to meet the backup requirements of data with different security levels.
File encryption is another core function of Landun chip, users can set their own key to encrypt the specified files. The application reports an error or displays garbled code when loading an encrypted file. In the actual trial process, the PPT file with a size of 152MB can be encrypted in about 14 seconds, and the CPU load remains below 8% during the encryption process, which truly achieves a burden-free and light experience.
The encrypted file can be used as a file transfer between Landun Girder Light Security Notebooks, and the recipient only needs to use the same key to unlock the file through the Xiaozhi space. In this way, even if the network environment used for file transfer or tools such as USB sticks are unreliable and insecure, encrypted files will not cause leakage.
Deleting files from shadowless rooms through file managers will be prompted
In the settings page, users can set the boot auto-start and message reminders. After checking the message reminder and sub-options, Xiaozhi Space will perform system-level prompts for file operations in the shadowless secret room. As a result, any malicious program hidden in the background process cannot quietly carry out the attack, and the user's perception of security threats has been fundamentally enhanced.
Data destruction is the ultimate means of ensuring data security. In the face of uncontrollable risks or threats, users can choose to destroy data in a shadowless room or the entire hard disk. The provision of many destruction methods such as shortcut key destruction, timed destruction and immediate destruction also allows users to have a more flexible operating space. It is worth noting that in view of the loss of the notebook and other situations, Xiaozhi Space also provides app remote destruction function, the user can remotely destroy all kinds of data in the notebook through the mobile APP bound to the PC side, once the notebook is networked, the operation will be performed immediately. It can be said that the data destruction function is the last insurance provided by Xiaozhi Space for enterprise data security.
Due to the comprehensive optimization of SSD media, the data destroyed by Xiaozhi Space cannot be scanned and recovered by various data recovery tools, which obviously further improves the protection ability of enterprises in the face of risks.
The security log can record all system-level operations after each boot of the user, including the user name, file name, and corresponding addition, deletion, or modification operation. This function can not only be used as a means of tracing and tracing data breaches, but also facilitate the operation and maintenance team to review and root out various security incidents, and is a reliable tool to improve the overall security level of enterprises.
Of course, as a data protection solution for enterprises, Xiaozhi Space also provides detailed online document support and background service related information.
The Landun Girder notebook launched by Chuzhi Technology and its Xiaozhi space integrate a wealth of practical data security functions. Due to the abandonment of the traditional solution of "comprehensive protection" thinking, the initial goal of focusing on data security will not have the embarrassing situation of "leaking everywhere".
Under the hardware blessing of the underlying Landun chip, the various functions provided by Xiaozhi Space are extremely robust, allowing enterprise users to calmly deal with various security threats against data. At the same time, the design of the dedicated chip also allows all kinds of data operations in Xiaozhi Space to be completed with extremely low system overhead and extremely high efficiency, and there will be no "fan spin, battery crazy" situation common in pure software solutions, and the experience is lighter and friendlier.
Therefore, The Landun Girder Notebook of Chuzhi Technology can also provoke the girder of reliable data security protection for enterprise management, field, sales and other roles. From the perspective of effect and experience, Lan Dun Da Liang is also an excellent product that surpasses traditional software solutions, which can protect the data security in the notebook for enterprises.
