Wangsu Security: To prevent the "barrel effect" of network security, how can enterprises build "systematic security"?

In the future, Wangsu's systematic defense capabilities of integrating Web and infrastructure protection, office and security, security services and security hosting will continue to evolve, helping enterprises develop digital intelligence and maximize security value. change.

Recently, the Wangsu Security New Product Technology Exchange Conference was held in Beijing with the theme of " Innovation in Digital Security " . Wangsu Security is a sub-brand of Wangsu Technology. Based on the core concept of "systematic security", it has brought the latest technological achievements such as WAAP full-site protection system, SASE office security integrated system , and MSS comprehensive security service hosting system.

In recent years, the failure of traditional border security has become a consensus in the industry. According to the cyber threat report released by SonicWall in 2023 , throughout 2022 , there will be a significant increase in malware, network intrusions, cryptojacking and IoT malware. It can be said that in the absence of systematic defense measures, the situation of cyber attacks in various industries has become more serious.

Frequent network security incidents are due, on the one hand, to the fact that in the process of digital transformation, with the popularization of cloud and mobile network architectures, traditional security boundaries are broken, and the trend of diversified applications and micro-service architectures makes the attack surface Also increased dramatically.

On the other hand, the security threats faced by enterprises are also more diverse. While technological advancements benefit enterprises, they also arm criminals. In recent years, new attack methods have emerged in an endless stream, and the anchor points of attacks have continued to increase. From network layer, application layer, business layer to API attacks, no one is immune.

"Cybersecurity has an obvious 'barrel effect'. If one weak link is breached, the entire network will collapse." Lu Shibiao, vice president and chief security officer of Wangsu Technology, said that network security needs to be based on the overall situation and achieve security through systematic core logic. Same high water level for all modules.

What is "systematic security"? Specifically, Wangsu Security's "systematic security" mainly includes the WAAP full-site protection system for Web security, the SASE office security integrated system for enterprise production and office security, and the MSS comprehensive security service hosting system for enterprise security construction . .

At the same time, because it is equipped with full-site isolation technology, it can effectively hide the website source code, JS, API, development framework and other exposed surfaces to ensure business Data Security.

According to Lu Shibiao, Wangsu WAAP can provide L3-L7 layer threat in-depth defense and protection engine architecture. It uses Wangsu resources, data, practical experience and AI-driven intelligent protection technology as the capability base. In complex attack scenarios, through universal The linked protection between modules and scenario-based protection modules can effectively improve confrontation efficiency and protection capabilities. Compared with overlay security solutions, Wangsu WAAP can reduce processing delays by 30%, increase response speed by 5 times, improve protection effects by more than 30%, greatly simplify operational complexity, and significantly improve operational efficiency .

Beforehand, we can discover asset exposure in advance through one-click access and identification of web assets; during the incident, we can use technologies such as DDoS / CC protection, Web attack protection, distributed Bot management, API security management, and full-site isolation to implement full-site protection management. A closed loop of Web protection is realized under unified management; afterwards, Wangsu security operation experts can provide solutions such as business prevention strategy optimization and security reinforcement suggestions through aggregate analysis of data. In this way, Wangsu WAAP achieves full life cycle protection for Web assets.

In the 2022 China public cloud anti-DDoS and cloud web application firewall market share rankings, Wangsu Security ranks among the top 5, and Wangsu WAAP is gaining recognition from more and more partners.

SASE integrated office security system: assisting office and production network security

The full name of SASE is Secure Access Service Edge, which is the secure access service edge. It is a security model proposed by Gartner in 2019. SASE combines comprehensive network-as-a-service functions with comprehensive network security functions.

With the development of cloud, big data, Internet of Things, edge computing and mobile office, most enterprises or organizations have more users, devices, applications, services and data located outside the enterprise. Enterprises need to meet security, cloud, remote access and connectivity requirements simultaneously. Gartner noted in its SASE market trends report that "customer demands for simplicity, scalability, flexibility, low latency and pervasive security are forcing the convergence of the WAN edge and network security markets."
