Enhancing Full-Stack Cloud Security Capabilities: Integrating Cloud and Network Security Across All Scenarios

Based on its strong R&D capabilities, H3C has created a full-stack cloud security capability map that includes “1 cloud and network security integration architecture, 2 SaaS security platforms, 3 core security solutions, 4 types of digitalized infrastructure, and 6 typical cloud security scenarios”. This comprehensive approach effectively meets complex security requirements for businesses migrating to the cloud, providing multi-dimensional protection for cloud-based services.

One Cloud and Network Security Integration Architecture

Through the integration of cloud management platforms with security management, as well as network scheduling with security scheduling, a groundbreaking approach is being introduced to deploy and manage the seamless integration of computing, networking, security, and storage. This disruptive strategy shatters the confines of traditional static, single-point, and passive defense, and instead paves the way for an intelligent, automated, and collaborative security infrastructure.

Two SaaS Security Platforms

H3C’s Secure Cloud Capability Center provides a rich set of SaaS-based local services, while integrating cloud-based and on-premises security threat intelligence to enhance protection effectiveness. In addition, by relying on security operation centers deployed in various locations, H3C is committed to building security operational capabilities that feature “on-demand subscription, cloud-based hosting, and turnkey services,” to comprehensively address the security challenges in the XaaS era.

Three Core Security Solutions

Driven by the “Proactive Security” concept, H3C has built a cloud security defense system that leverages information security compliance as the foundation and security assessment and data protection as the cornerstone to comprehensively enhance threat detection and defense capabilities.

Four Types of Digitalized Infrastructure

H3C fully supports and adapts to the four major basic platforms, with the cloud security management platform SecCloud OMP as the core, providing diverse security services and collaborating with partners to build a secure ecosystem.

Six Typical Cloud Security Scenarios

H3C focuses on six major scenarios including hybrid cloud security, public cloud security, industry cloud security, HCI security, backbone network protection, and compliance for small and micro-sized users. By achieving cloud-intelligent integration, we aim to assist customers in building a multi-scenario full-stack security operation system.

As a professional vendor in the field of cloud security, H3C has participated in the development of authoritative industry standards and white papers such as the “Guidelines for Cybersecurity Compliance of Government Cloud Networks,” “White Paper on Compliance Capabilities of Cloud Computing Security Level Protection 2.0,” and “White Paper on SASE Technology and Application Scenarios,” to continuously empower business security for various industries and users.
