How to ensure data security for SMEs in 2022? Comparing HUAWEI CLOUD with other cloud computing companies

〇. Introduction: The development index of small and medium-sized enterprises has stopped falling and rebounded. In 2022, small and medium-sized enterprises will embark on the road of rapid growth.

• On December 9, 2021, the China Association of Small and Medium Enterprises released the latest economic operation of small and medium-sized enterprises in my country. The data shows that in November, the SME development index ended a seven-month continuous decline and rebounded to 86.3, an increase of 0.2 points from the previous month. Against the backdrop of the economic downturn since the third quarter of 2021, this positive trend is particularly prominent.

• 2022 is the year of rapid growth of small and medium-sized enterprises. The Ministry of Industry and Information Technology will also implement the "Small and Medium-Sized Enterprise Digitalization Promotion Project" during the "14th Five-Year Plan" period. By the end of 2022, more than 100 industrial Internet platforms and digital transformation service providers will be organized to more than 100,000 Small and medium-sized enterprises provide digital transformation services, and promote the "cloud" of 100,000 small and medium- sized enterprises .

• Now, the chat content of bosses of small and medium-sized enterprises is related to digitization, which platform is easy to use, which service provider has a good attitude, and which manufacturer has more resources or learned experience and technology. In the field of cloud services, Huawei Cloud has the best reputation in the circle. On the one hand, the service is in place , and on the other hand, it trusts Huawei Cloud to build a full-stack defense system with data security as the core .

In this article, on the aspect of "data security", I use the horizontal comparison of cloud computing companies to illustrate that Huawei Cloud is the first in terms of security and reliability.

1. Data security

In terms of data security, specifically, I will conduct in-depth analysis from technical aspects such as network security, application security, data security, and host security .

①HUAWEI CLOUD:

In terms of data security, HUAWEI CLOUD promises that users can enjoy the same level of security services as Huawei, and at the same time abide by business boundaries, do not compete with customers, and do not touch customer data. This commitment is enough to show the depth of HUAWEI CLOUD's attention to user data security.

1. In the field of network security, HUAWEI CLOUD provides a wealth of network security-related services and functions. From network architecture design, equipment selection and configuration, to operation and maintenance, various multi-layered physical and virtual networks are used for the bearer network. Security isolation, access control and border protection technologies, and strict implementation of corresponding control measures to ensure the security of HUAWEI CLOUD.

For example, for DDos protection services that enterprises attach great importance to, HUAWEI CLOUD provides DDoS high-defense 5T defense bandwidth and second-level network-wide coordinated defense to ensure that the website is damaged by heavy traffic attacks;

2. In the field of application security, HUAWEI CLOUD has launched WAF and vulnerability scanning. The WAF with elastic expansion of security capabilities can detect and protect website traffic in real time to ensure that the website is not tampered with data; vulnerability scanning, from the coding stage to the online operation, provides full life cycle security detection;

3. In the field of data security, HUAWEI CLOUD has launched database security services and data encryption services. Database security services, based on reverse proxy and machine learning mechanisms, provide functions such as sensitive data discovery, data desensitization, database auditing, and anti-injection attacks. Data encryption service, providing exclusive encryption, key management, key pair management and other functions to ensure data security;

4. In the field of host security, HUAWEI CLOUD provides asset management, vulnerability management, intrusion detection, baseline inspection and other functions to monitor and block website intrusions in real time;

②Amazon Cloud:

1. In the field of network security, Amazon Cloud adopts network security groups, ACL access control lists, Route Table routing tables and application firewall AWS Shield;
2. In the field of data security, Amazon Cloud mainly uses AWS Key Management Service and AWS Certificate Manager to ensure data security, in addition to security monitoring and management.

③ Microsoft Cloud:

1. In the field of network security, Microsoft Cloud configures strict network access rights through Network Security Groups (NSG) and sets up Azure Firewall, complementing the functions of Network Safety Net, as well as Web Application Firewall (WAF) and secure remote access and cross-border connect.
2. In the field of data security, Microsoft Cloud covers database security, data encryption, hard disk encryption, storage security, etc.
3. In the field of host security, the Azure platform implements DDos protection and service endpoints at the physical level before malicious traffic enters the Azure virtual network.

④Alibaba Cloud:

1. In the field of network security, Alibaba Cloud uses its VPC, security group, cloud firewall and DDoS defense for protection;
2. In the field of application security, Alibaba Cloud takes vulnerability scanning, code hosting, code auditing and security hardening measures for application environment security; at the same time, ACM configuration encryption is adopted for application configuration security; at the application protection level, it provides Web application firewall services;
3. In the field of data security, Alibaba Cloud adopts data classification, data desensitization, data leakage prevention, data integrity, and data high availability measures for data protection; at the same time, it encrypts the entire link, including transmission encryption, storage encryption, encrypted computing, and encrypted services. and SSL certificate service; the processing of key management service is to host HSM, self-select key, and key rotation;
4. In the field of host security, Alibaba Cloud adopts five measures, namely intrusion detection, virus detection, vulnerability management, OS and image hardening, and downtime migration, and real-time monitoring;

Comparison summary:

"HUAWEI CLOUD builds a full-stack defense system centered on data security. This system embodies the "three nos" defense-in-depth concept, that is, risks cannot enter, and data cannot be seen or taken away. Build a security prevention and control network to block brute force cracking, malicious programs, Trojan uploads, unauthorized access, etc. from the network; "Invisible" protects database security through database permission control, data dynamic desensitization, and accurate auditing; Can't take it away "Ensure data content from being cracked through data encryption."

• During this period of time, I have carefully read the security white papers of the four well-known cloud vendors at home and abroad, namely Huawei Cloud, Amazon Cloud, Microsoft Cloud, and Alibaba Cloud, and conducted an in-depth analysis of their respective data security measures. By comparison, it is not difficult to see that HUAWEI CLOUD has invested deeply in user data security, made great efforts, and adopted perfect measures and high security!

• "Don't make applications on the top, don't touch the data on the bottom" , this is a humorous remark made by Zheng Yelai, President of Huawei IT Product Line, at the Huawei Cloud Computing Conference. Of course, this is also a major concept of Huawei Cloud, and this sentence is also It clearly reflects the fact that HUAWEI CLOUD will never touch user data (which is difficult for other cloud vendors to do), because data belongs to users, and Huawei will not convert user data into its own. income.

2. Small and medium-sized enterprises grow rapidly, and it is more reliable to choose HUAWEI CLOUD

To sum up, I personally think that among small and medium-sized enterprises, HUAWEI CLOUD will be more suitable.
