Cyber Security Solutions
In the attitude of zero tolerance of CFE to cyber attack and information leakage,we outlined a number of solutions that can be adopted from several perspective to strengthen and upgrade our safety net and information pool.
- Implementing ISO/IEC 27001(INFORMATION SECURITY MANAGEMENT SYSTEM),providing requirements for an information security management system (ISMS)
- Cloud information Storage,integrate security tools to gain insights into threats across diverse, multicloud environments.
- AI and utilization of multi-source information feature,upgrading the scope and class of the coverage of information.
