China's Independence from Global Computer Failures: The Critical Role of 360 and Key Lessons from Cybersecurity
In the recent global computer paralysis crisis triggered by the Microsoft blue screen incident, many countries around the world have been hit hard, but China has been able to escape from it. Behind this remarkable phenomenon, 360 Antivirus has contributed to its excellence, and its founder, Zhou Hongyi, has revealed the key factors for us.
As a leading company in the field of cybersecurity in China, 360's technical strength should not be underestimated. After years of development and accumulation, 360 has successfully covered up to 1.5 billion terminal devices, served more than 10,000 government and enterprise customers, and has been running stably for more than 15 years. This large user base and long-term stable service are a testament to 360's strong capabilities in technology research and development, system maintenance, and responding to sudden cyber threats.
In today's highly information-based society, the importance of cybersecurity is becoming increasingly prominent. Computers and networks have become deeply integrated into people's lives, work, and the country's critical infrastructure. The collapse of critical information systems can lead to a series of serious consequences, such as the stagnation of corporate production, the disruption of financial transactions, the disruption of public services, and possibly even the threat to national security. Therefore, having reliable cyber security protection measures is not only a requirement of individual users, but also a necessary guarantee for the normal operation of the entire society.
In this case, China was able to avoid mass computer paralysis in large part due to the fact that up to 90% of the country's computers used 360 antivirus software. This data reflects the trust that users have in 360, and also highlights the importance of domestic security software in ensuring national cybersecurity. Zhou Hongyi emphasized that domestic security software can better adapt to the domestic network environment and user needs, and can respond to various local network threats more quickly and effectively.
However, while security software plays a critical role in protecting against cyber threats, the user's own cybersecurity awareness is also essential. Users should be aware of security and develop good habits of keeping systems and security software up to date to ensure that their devices are protected against the latest cyberattacks. At the same time, when choosing security software, it is important to carefully choose reliable products, such as 360, which has deep technical accumulation and a good reputation.
In short, this global computer paralysis incident is a wake-up call for us to network security. In the future, we expect that domestic security software such as 360 will continue to improve its technical strength and provide users with stronger protection; At the same time, it is also hoped that the majority of users can further enhance their awareness of network security and jointly build a safe and stable network environment.
