During the Black Hat Summit MEA 2023, Huawei introduced a range of cutting-edge cybersecurity advancements under the theme “Security, No Compromise, Your Advantage Security.” Among the showcased innovations were the groundbreaking Network-Storage Multilayer Ransomware Protection (MRP) Solution, the Huawei Hi-Sec 3.0 network security solution, and an AI-based cloud-network collaboration security solution. These advancements are designed to fortify the global ICT infrastructure, prioritizing robust and secure systems for users worldwide.
As a premier cybersecurity summit, Black Hat annually brings together the forefront of security innovations. The findings presented at Black Hat, known for their technical prowess, authority, and objectivity, play a pivotal role in shaping the future landscape of cybersecurity.
David Tao, Managing Director of Huawei KSA Government & Enterprise, emphasized the increasing importance and complexity of cybersecurity in an intelligent world. He highlighted Huawei’s commitment to prioritizing cybersecurity and privacy protection over business interests, stating that a resilient cybersecurity strategy is vital for the development and prosperity of the MEA region and the world.
Ransomware, with a yearly growth rate of 3.5 times, poses a significant threat, resulting in substantial economic losses. Huawei’s Network-Storage Collaborated MRP Technology addresses this by combining “network” and “storage” elements, offering dual-layered defense against ransomware attacks. The solution boasts a ransomware virus detection rate exceeding 90%.
The End-to-End Cybersecurity Assurance System presented by Huawei at the event focuses on network infrastructure. The HiSec 3.0 network security solution aims to establish a comprehensive Cloud-Network-Edge-Endpoint Integrated Security System. Additionally, the SASE Multi-Branch solution facilitates efficient and secure access for government, finance, manufacturing, and other industries to SaaS, public cloud, Internet, corporate headquarters, and various services.
In the realm of storage, Huawei’s solution addresses the complete data life cycle, ensuring full disaster recovery, hot backup, warm archiving, and intelligent convergence for data integrity and business continuity.
As a major cloud service provider, Huawei Cloud stands out with its “one security center and seven layers of defense” full-stack security service system. With over 20 proprietary cloud security services and more than 400 security services, Huawei Cloud enables cybersecurity professionals to establish comprehensive security on the cloud, covering workload security, application security, data asset security, security posture management, and regulation-compliant migration.
