[Dongguan, China, June 9, 2021] Huawei today opened its largest global cybersecurity and privacy transparency center in Dongguan, China, with representatives from the GSMA, SUSE, the British Standards Institution and regulators from the UAE. Arabs and Indonesia during the opening ceremony.
Along with the opening of the new center, Huawei also released its Product Safety Reference, marking the first time the company has made its product safety framework and management practices available to the entire industry. These actions are part of the company’s broader efforts to engage with customers, suppliers, standards bodies and other stakeholders to jointly strengthen cybersecurity across the industry.
“Cybersecurity is more important than ever,” said Ken Hu, rotating chairman of Huawei, at the opening of the Dongguan center. “As an industry, we need to work together, share best practices and strengthen our collective capacities in governance, standards, technology and auditing. We need to give the general public and regulators a reason to trust the safety of the products and services they use every day. Together, we can find the right balance between security and development in an increasingly digital world.

Over the past few years, the digitalization of industry and new technologies like 5G and AI have made cyberspace more complex than ever, compounded by the fact that people have spent more of their lives online. throughout the COVID-19 pandemic. These trends have led to an increase in new cybersecurity risks.
Huawei has opened the new Global Cyber Security and Privacy Transparency Center in Dongguan to address these issues, providing industry stakeholders with a platform to share their e-governance expertise and work. together on technical solutions. The center is designed to demonstrate solutions and share experiences, facilitate communication and joint innovation, and support security testing and verification. It will be open to regulators, independent third-party testing bodies and standards bodies, as well as Huawei customers, partners and suppliers.
To foster a unified approach to cybersecurity in the telecommunications industry, organizations like the GSMA and 3GPP have also worked with industry stakeholders to promote NESAS security assurance specifications and independent certifications. These baselines have been widely accepted in the industry and will play an important role in the development and verification of secure networks.
Mats Granryd, Managing Director of the GSMA, spoke at the inauguration of Huawei’s new center. “The provision of existing and new services in the 5G era will depend heavily on the connectivity provided by mobile networks and will fundamentally depend on the security and trust of the underlying technology,” he said. “Initiatives such as the GSMA 5G cybersecurity knowledge base, designed to help stakeholders understand and mitigate network risks, and NESAS, an industry-wide security assurance framework , are designed to help improve the security levels of network equipment in the industry. “
At the event, Huawei also released its Product safety reference, the culmination of over a decade of experience in product safety management, incorporating a wide range of external regulations, technical standards and regulatory requirements. the Reference, together with Huawei’s other governance mechanisms, helps ensure the quality, safety and reliability of the company’s products. Over the years, Huawei has built more than 1,500 networks that connect more than three billion people in 170 countries and regions. None of these networks has ever experienced a major security incident.
“This is the first time that we have shared our security framework with the entire industry, not just major vendors,” said Sean Yang, director of Huawei’s Global Cyber Security and Privacy Protection Office. “We would like to invite all stakeholders, including customers, regulators, standards bodies, technology providers and test bodies, to join us in discussing and working on cybersecurity baselines. Together, we can continuously improve product safety across the industry.
At present, the industry still lacks a coordinated, standards-based approach, particularly with regard to governance, technical capacities, certification and collaboration.
“Cyber security risk is a shared responsibility,” concluded Ken Hu in his opening remarks. “Governments, standards organizations and technology providers need to work more closely together to develop a unified understanding of cybersecurity challenges. It must be an international effort. We need to define common goals, align responsibilities and work together to create a trustworthy digital environment that meets the challenges of today and tomorrow. “
