The Data Security Law puts forward higher compliance requirements for enterprises.
As we all know, the Data Security Law of People's Republic of China (PRC), which regulates data processing activities, ensures data security, promotes data development and utilization, protects the legitimate rights and interests of individuals and organizations, and safeguards national sovereignty, security and development interests, will be formally implemented on September/day, 20265438. At the press conference held by the State Council Press Office in July this year, Zhao Zhiguo, director of the Information and Communication Administration Bureau of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, said that the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology would speed up the formulation of data security management policies in the industrial and information fields and better undertake the implementation of the Data Security Law in the industry.
In this regard, Gu believes that the Data Security Law emphasizes the protection of the data rights of individuals and organizations, which means that higher compliance requirements are put forward for enterprises involved in data processing.
At the same time, under the background that the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology will speed up the formulation of data security management policies in the field of industry and informatization, more and more China enterprises are riding the east wind of "Industrial Internet", and their full value chains such as supply chain, manufacturing, sales and service are being reconstructed by digital technologies such as big data and artificial intelligence, and they are developing in a global and cross-regional direction. For them, in order to ensure data compliance, effectively respond to legal inquiries, and quickly achieve control and insight into data is very important.
Effective compliance management is the internal force to ensure the long-term development of enterprises, and it is also the basis for enterprises to avoid risks. Digital compliance is equivalent to the "new infrastructure" within enterprises and is a system that every enterprise must attach importance to. Weir Software suggested that enterprises might as well take this opportunity to re-examine their data management strategies and focus on improving "data insight" in the future.
The so-called data insight is like the first acupuncture point of enterprise data governance. Only by finding this first acupoint correctly can the next data protection be targeted and get twice the result with half the effort. Now many enterprises are aware of the importance of data protection, but ignore that data insight is actually the absolute priority of data protection. First of all, enterprises should take stock of how much data is compliant and valuable, which runs through the whole data service life cycle, including the work before, during and after the service, otherwise what we call data protection and high availability will lose its meaning.
Therefore, enterprises need to establish an "end-to-end" solution: from data capture, data archiving to data supervision, establish one-stop data insight services, such as helping enterprises find dark data, identify risks and classify information, and help enterprises adjust their strategies through automated workflows, so as to track data according to facts and finally respond quickly to legal and regulatory requirements.
If we want to do all this, we must look at the overall data of the enterprise from the perspective of the platform, which is also the concept that Weir Software has always advocated. At Weir Software, we focus on the overall capabilities of technology, and provide insight and analysis on the overall data of enterprises from the perspective of platforms, including backup data, cloud data and edge data.
Veritas "1234"
Weir Software's solutions to the problems faced by enterprises can be summarized as "one, two, three and four":
Gu emphasized that at the product level, NetBackup 9, the most scalable unified data protection platform in the industry recently updated by Veritas, is our flagship product, which helps customers achieve cross-edge, core and cloud deployment, further simplifies operations and fully protects any cloud, data source, workload and deployment mode; Veritas also strengthened NetBackup's defense against ransomware in containerized environment and cloud environment, combined with the immutable storage of Amazon S3, enhanced anti-blackmail immunity in the cloud, and integrated the function of detecting abnormal file usage behavior. At the same time, Veritas has launched a brand-new NetBackup Flex 5350 all-in-one machine, which provides anti-blackmail immunity, and at the same time, the product performance has reached twice that of competing products. The full range of NetBackup electrical appliances also has anti-blackmail reinforcement function.
In terms of compliance, Weir Software also has a series of products to help enterprises solve digital compliance problems. For example, in data capture and archiving, Veritas Merge 1 is the industry-leading enterprise communication capture solution, which can directly capture the communication information sent and received by modern employees through chat, file sharing, social media, mobile messages/short messages, collaboration tools and voice channels. Through the acquisition of Globanet, Weir Software enhanced Weir Software's data archiving and electronic search functions, and provided customers with visual guides to operate more than 80 new global data sources, including local communication software such as WeChat and Nail, as well as Microsoft team, Slack, Zoom, Symphony and Bloomberg.
In addition, by combining the functions of cloud storage, advanced search and improved data classification, Veritas Enterprise Vault enables enterprises to effectively store, manage and discover all communication contents and documents, thus ensuring enterprises to be more compliant in the simplest way. The flexible deployment options of Veritas Enterprise Vault can meet any requirement, whether it is directly archiving to the cloud, local storage or a fully hosted SaaS solution, it can be easily competent, ensuring that all digital communication content of the enterprise can be captured. Veritas Enterprise Vault has been recognized by many customers and won the "20021Annual Gartner Peer Insights Customer Choice Award for Enterprise Information Archiving";
For data discovery and review, Veritas eDiscovery Platform can help customers respond to laws, regulations and discovery requests quickly and easily by finding, classifying, analyzing and reviewing information quickly and efficiently. Gu revealed that Weir Software provides customers with a complete set of solutions, covering the whole life cycle of electronic discovery, from litigation retention and collection to analysis, review and promotion. At the same time, with the help of workflow automation, human intervention and human error can be reduced.
Weir Software is in a leading position in the data protection market and has won the trust of 87% fortune global 500 companies. There are also many customers in China market, including chip manufacturing, biopharmaceuticals, new energy vehicles and financial industries. These customers have great demand for digitalization, and the data volume is growing very fast, so they have very close cooperation with Weir Software. For example, in order to cope with the rapid growth of business volume, China Everbright Bank needs to try its best to ensure the uninterrupted operation of 65,438+060 key servers, simplify cluster management and streamline data protection processes. Under this background, China Everbright Bank chose Veritas NetBackup to automate and standardize cluster management and data protection across three data centers, and achieved four years without unexpected downtime. In the previous environment, such incidents occurred many times, which not only increased the recovery time target (RTO) by seven times, but also increased the backup speed by two to four times, eliminating hundreds of hours of planned downtime every year.
Data management means can't keep up with IT system.
According to the Veritas survey, 69% of the respondents in China said that their enterprise data management measures failed to keep up with the increasing complexity of IT systems.
Shangyun and digital transformation are important challenges facing enterprises at present. Weir Software, which has been focusing on data management for more than 30 years, also keeps pace with the times, providing data protection and management solutions for enterprises according to industry pain points and customer needs. In view of "ransomware", a hot threat to data security, the idea provided is not to prevent extortion from the perspective of "blocking", but more to "sparse", that is, to do a complete analysis beforehand. Gu Haiwei said: "Analyze user behavior through the Vercloud data service platform, and kill risks in the cradle by changing the reading and writing of data stored in the background; In the face of attacks, data and applications can be recovered at the fastest speed to ensure the normal operation of the business. Our purpose is not to defend, but to ensure that customers have sufficient backup disaster tolerance and data protection capabilities. Whether the data is stored locally or on the cloud, it can be used and saved with real confidence. "
Data will become an important asset for future enterprises.
In the era of digital economy, data can be said to be the life door of enterprises, and it will also become an important asset of future enterprises. Especially in the post-epidemic era and digital transformation period, enterprises should not only guard against extortion attacks, but also consider how to integrate the data on and off the cloud, how to mine and make good use of valuable data, how to ensure that the compliance baseline of the company is met during the use process, how to analyze and predict the growth or decline trend of data, and how to reduce costs and increase efficiency.
Gu suggested that enterprises should make a complete data protection scheme and management strategy from the perspective of platform. In view of the digital compliance risks encountered by more and more enterprises at present, the following measures can be taken to realize the synchronization of data management practice and information sharing:
? Standardize instant messaging software and business collaboration tools that meet business needs-this will limit disorderly expansion;
? Formulate information sharing policies-this will help control the sharing of sensitive information;
? Provide training for all employees on deployed tools and regulations-this will help reduce the occurrence of violations;
? Using eDiscovery and SaaS data backup solutions, the data in instant messaging software and business collaboration tools will be integrated into the data management strategy of enterprises-this will enable enterprises to make full use of software and tools without putting their business at risk.
"What Weir Software does is to promote platform solutions." Gu emphasized that in this platform solution, there are not only data protection platforms and business continuity platforms, but also data insight is a platform. From a platform perspective, providing customers with all-round data management, not just a single functional module, is the biggest difference of Veritas.
Veritas provides customers with a unified data protection platform (EDSP), which helps customers to fully protect any cloud, data source, workload and deployment mode across edge, core and cloud deployments. As long as there is any new environment and new platform in the market, Weir Software will make these things compatible, and finally strive to provide customers with a seamless data experience.
In the future, Weil Software will not only guide products, but also lead the whole market as a leader in this field, not only accumulating data, but also introducing scientific data management concepts (data lifecycle management).
