Technology to help build new cyberspace

“Technology is a core force in the development of countries and in spurring competition. I was glad to witness the release of the latest leading scientific and technological achievements. I was particularly impressed by the Ascend 310, developed by Huawei Technologies Co, as it could be a pivotal breakthrough in China’s chip research. Digitalization, or high-tech, in fact, is changing or will change our lifestyles, which is its biggest contribution. But technology providers or internet enterprises should be prospective when promoting their products or services, because we expect them to not only bring convenience to our daily lives, but also safeguard us from cyber threats.”

“Technological changes and innovation has been maintaining strong momentum, while cyber threats are becoming more and more sophisticated and are springing up one after another, ranging from personal information and privacy leaks to infringement of intellectual property, from cyber crimes and cyber terrorism to various sophisticated cyberattacks. China has been making efforts in the past years for cybersecurity. The 360 Brain of security, a cybersecurity protection system released at the conference, is a good example of adopting new technologies such as artificial intelligence, big data, cloud computing and block chain to achieve the goal.”
