Huawei launches ‘world’s best’ ransomware detection system
Huawei has claimed its new Cyber Engine database security system is “the best in the world” with a 99.9% detection rate for ransomware.
The system, which was launched on the opening day of the 2023 Mobile World Congress event in Barcelona, is described as a “last line of defence” by the Chinese conglomerate.
“The mechanism we have built for Cyber Engine, together with data storage, is the last line of defence, but it also should be the most effective way,” Huawei’s president of IT product line, Dr Peter Zhou, told journalists after his presentation. “Our mechanism and also the algorithm we have developed within Cyber Engine is AI-trained to detect the fingerprint of the ransomware virus and whether or not there has been an attack on the system,” he explained.
