Huawei named Cisco for the attack, affecting hundreds of thousands of devices

Mondo History Updated on 2024-01-29

Recently, Huawei's data storage official Weibo said that it will hold a new product launch conference for Oceanprotect data protection on December 20 to escort enterprise data security. This news has attracted widespread attention, especially in the context of frequent data security incidents and increasingly rampant cyber attacks, and Huawei's move is considered a major breakthrough in the field of enterprise data security.

However, while announcing the new product, Huawei also named a recent zero-day vulnerability attack on Cisco, which affected hundreds of thousands of devices. It is reported that Cisco is a world-renowned network equipment manufacturer, and the attacks it has suffered are enough to illustrate the current severe situation of network security.

In fact, in recent years, data security incidents have been common, and accidents such as accidental deletion of data, virus attacks, and natural disasters will bring irreparable losses to enterprises. In particular, the frequent theft and destruction of high-value data have forced enterprises to raise data security issues to an unprecedented height.

In 2023, for example, OKTA was attacked and leaked customer information, down 11%;Cisco was hit by a zero-day exploit that affected hundreds of thousands of devices on the InternetThe CDW company was attacked by ransomware and was demanded to pay a ransom of 80 million. These incidents not only bring huge financial losses to enterprises, but also cause irreparable damage to the reputation and customer trust of enterprises.

Against this backdrop, Huawei's new OceanProtect data protection product is highly anticipated. It is reported that the product adopts a number of advanced technical means, which can quickly recover data and ensure the integrity and security of data when accidents such as accidental deletion of data and virus attacks occur. At the same time, the product can also provide enterprises with a full range of data protection services, including data backup, disaster recovery backup, data encryption, etc., to ensure that enterprise data can be protected to the greatest extent in any situation.

It is worth mentioning that Huawei has rich experience and technology accumulation in the field of data protection. Over the years, Huawei has been committed to providing efficient, secure, and reliable data storage and solutions for enterprise users. The launch of OceanProtect is also an important step for Huawei in the field of data protection.

However, for network equipment vendors such as Cisco, the attack is also an important reminder. In the current increasingly severe cybersecurity situation, enterprises must strengthen cybersecurity awareness and technology investment to ensure the security of their network equipment and systems. At the same time, enterprises also need to strengthen communication and collaboration with leading companies and partners to jointly address cybersecurity challenges.

It is foreseeable that with the accelerated development of digitalization, networking, and intelligence, enterprise data security issues will become more and more prominent. In the future, Huawei and other technology companies will continue to increase investment and R&D efforts in the field of data security, and provide more efficient, secure, and reliable data protection products and services for enterprise users. At the same time, enterprises also need to strengthen their own cyber security awareness and technology investment to ensure the security of their data and systems. Only by working together can we ensure the security and stable operation of enterprise data and provide a strong guarantee for the sustainable development of enterprises.
