Analysis of government digital network security applications

Current status of government digital transformation: Digital government construction has achieved initial results, and business efficiency has been greatly improved.

With the rapid advancement of digital government construction, central and local digital government construction plans and work plans have been successively introduced, and construction implementation has been gradually implemented. As of the end of 2020, the construction of China's digital government has begun to show results, playing an increasingly obvious role in innovating government governance and service models, improving administrative management and service efficiency, and improving government credibility and execution capabilities.

China's new development in the digital era, network security has entered a new era

Current situation of government network security: Affected by the COVID-19 epidemic and international situation, government websites are frequently attacked

With the continuous advancement of digital government and the in-depth application of various digital means, government governance is also facing increasing cybersecurity risks. Against the background of the impact of the COVID-19 epidemic and the complex international situation, from 2019 to 2020, DDoS attacks launched against important units such as China’s party and government agencies and critical information infrastructure became more organized and purposeful, and the overall trend was high frequency and high incidence. In 2019, China's important party and government agencies were attacked by phishing emails from APT organizations more than 500,000 times, which was particularly rampant during major events and sensitive periods in China. In 2019, 515 government websites in China were tampered with.

According to "China's Government and Enterprise InstitutionsData SecurityRisk Research Report", from January 2019 to August 2020, among major global data security incidents, 19.3% occurred in the Internet industry; 14.0% occurred in the IT information technology industry; and 10.7% occurred in government agencies and institutions.

Current status of government network security: Government has become the largest share of the downstream network security market

◆The focus of digital government reform and construction is to promote the integration, opening and sharing of government data. The integration of government data and business has increased the difficulty of network security protection, making the government's network security construction face a more complex situation and severe challenges.

◆《information security"Basic Requirements for Technical Network Security Level Protection" stipulates that the objects that need to build level protection are the information systems of governments, public institutions, and enterprises that provide services to the outside world operating within China, as well as basic networks, cloud platforms, big data, the Internet of Things, and industrial control systems. and mobile Internet and other fields.

◆According to data disclosed by large network security vendors such as Sangfor, Anheng Information, Qi'anxin, NSFOCUS Technology, and Tianrongxin, the government is usually their downstream customer with the largest revenue share, with an average share of more than 30% in 2018.

China's new development in the digital era, network security has entered a new era

Government and enterprise network security pain points:

The enterprise safety management system is imperfect

The weak security awareness of enterprises and the imperfect management system lead to enterprises often passively deploy network security products to "patch" after encountering network attacks. However, as the digital transformation of enterprises deepens, their pursuit of new technologies has extended new information security risk points. On the one hand, imperfect management systems will lead to a mismatch between security capabilities and system application capabilities. On the other hand, they will face threats from internal personnel. Error or deliberate sabotage, risk of information theft.

Enterprises are not clear about their own assets

From the traditional perspective of information security, information assets only include hardware, personnel, site services, etc. However, the development of new generation information technology has caused an increase in the number of enterprise data assets, and enterprises are not clear about what assets they have, let alone potential security risks. network security risks. The enterprise network security system must achieve prevention beforehand, processing during the incident, and traceability afterward, and truly implement it to achieve protective effects, which requires networksecurity servicesVendors systematically sort out and design the top-level architecture.

Enterprise security products are siled

In the past, enterprises deployed network security products in a "patching" manner, resulting in the isolation of each network security product or system, and the product effectiveness was not maximized. As the digital transformation of enterprises deepens, the business of enterprises grows and the scale expands. , Enterprise network security planning needs to make up for the shortcomings and adapt to the growth of the enterprise. Enterprises need to have sustainable security operation capabilities.

Lack of enterprise security talents

Cybersecurity is a computer discipline that requires extremely comprehensive capabilities and a wealth of practical experience. The talent growth cycle is long. With the advancement of digitalization, enterprises’ demand for cybersecurity talents is gradually increasing. The scale of demand for cybersecurity talents in the first half of 2019 This represents a month-on-month increase of 104.9% compared with the second half of 2018, and there is a regional imbalance in supply and demand. Cyber security talents are mostly concentrated in first-tier cities such as Beijing, Shanghai and Shenzhen.

Insufficient safety awareness among grassroots personnel
Since most government department staff do not have systematic knowledge of network information security and lack overall security concepts, and are limited by objective reasons, many government department staff do not have the opportunity to receive more systematic security awareness training, making it difficult to A joint force is formed in network information security work, resulting in no one taking responsibility for daily work, and each other passing the blame when problems arise, unable to effectively solve existing problems and hidden dangers.

Lack of funding guarantee

The purchase, maintenance, technical support, and expansion of software systems all require expenses for network equipment and security equipment, and the funds used often cannot directly bring economic or social benefits. It is inevitable that the heads of government departments, especially the main leaders, will have insufficient understanding of the current status of network information security in their units, resulting in a situation where investment and management in security work cannot meet security protection requirements.

Weak emergency response capabilities

The talent gap for cybersecurity professionals in China is estimated to be more than 500,000, while the number of college graduates in cybersecurity-related majors is only about 20,000 every year. Data show that in the context of many industries being affected by the epidemic and the scale of recruitment significantly reduced, the demand for network security talents throughout 2020 still increased by 47.5% year-on-year compared with 2019. The demand for talents is growing rapidly, and the requirements for talents' professional abilities are constantly increasing. However, the growth rate of talent supply is always lower than the growth rate of demand, and the quality of talents is difficult to meet the demand.

Insufficient cybersecurity talent

Due to the different internal organizational structures of various government departments, the internal agencies responsible for network information security are often equal and independent from the departments responsible for specific business systems. There is no upper and lower management authority, resulting in the inability to form a unified emergency response process. In the face of emergencies, When incidents occur, the network information security department and business departments lack an information reporting mechanism and are unable to form a joint effort to deal with the incident in a timely and effective manner.

E-government digital background: The e-government market size will reach 352.1 billion yuan in 2020

The meaning of e-government is to use information technology to break down information islands and data chimneys between and within departments, reshape and optimize government business processes and organizational systems, and create a more transparent and efficient service-oriented government. It is an important link in reform and an important strategic support for promoting the modernization of the national governance system and governance capabilities. The important carriers of e-government are government portals and government service platforms, as well as the supporting big data services and cloud service platforms. The development goal of e-government is to create a digital government that is holistically linked, efficient and benefits the people.
