  Online shopping, ordering food and taxis, mobile payment, scanning codes... The Internet has brought many conveniences to people's daily life.

At the same time, network security incidents such as network fraud and information leakage also occur from time to time.

  "Without cybersecurity, there will be no national security, no stable economic and social operation, and the interests of the broad masses of the people will be difficult to protect." April 15 is the 7th National Security Education Day for all, and cybersecurity publicity and education activities are carried out in many places across the country.

Enhancing national security awareness and building a strong network security barrier have become a hot topic of concern.

  The "money bag" that protects the people

  In recent years, telecommunication and network fraud methods have been constantly renovated, infringing on the vital interests and property safety of the people.

Recently, the Cyberspace Administration of China has exposed a number of typical cases of telecommunication network fraud.

  In November 2021, Zhang Moumou in a city in Sichuan Province received a customer service call falsely claiming an e-commerce company, saying that the diapers purchased by Zhang Moumou could apply for a refund due to quality problems.

Zhang Moumou did not verify the other party's information through official channels, and performed the transfer operation according to the other party's instructions, and was deceived by a total of 75,000 yuan.

  In February 2022, Hu Mou from a city in Hebei Province saw a stock speculation advertisement, downloaded an APP for related investment operations, began to invest a small amount of profit and successfully withdrawn, then increased the investment amount, and finally failed to withdraw cash, and was defrauded of 500,000 yuan in total.

  Zhu Wei, deputy director of the Communication Law Research Center of China University of Political Science and Law, said in an interview with this newspaper that the personal information obtained by criminals often includes behavioral characteristics information, such as shopping information, payment information, etc., and then accurately defrauds accordingly.

"Protection of personal information protection will reduce telecommunication fraud. Criminals can obtain this information, but there is often a chain behind it. The upstream illegally collects and handles telephone cards, bank cards, etc., provides citizens' personal information, and builds a technology platform. Such a huge chain of interests needs multi-department, cross-platform, and cross-domain linkage to eradicate.”

  "There will be no pie in the sky, but there may be traps on the ground. Consumers need to be savvy about the law and cybersecurity. They should be careful about downloading apps, shopping online, and using social media, and pay special attention to the Internet. Fraud, don’t take small advantages and suffer big losses.” Liu Junhai, director of the Institute of Commercial Law of Renmin University of China, said in an interview with this newspaper.

  Industry insiders pointed out that no matter how refurbished online frauds are, they are all implemented and disseminated through instant chat tools, search platforms, online publishing platforms, emails and other channels. Internet platform companies must implement their main responsibilities and strengthen audit checks.

"It is the responsibility of the platform to defend the soil. It must stand up for the majority of users, set up the guard, and check the customs." Liu Junhai said.

  The government, enterprises, social organizations and netizens work together to build a more effective network security line of defense.

"The network information department, the telecommunications department, the public security department, and the market supervision department should coordinate and co-governance, work together, and turn multiple wheels together to achieve transparent supervision, intelligent supervision, efficient supervision, and precise supervision." Liu Junhai believes that, The supervision method of "three rises and three drops" can be used, that is, to increase illegal costs and reduce illegal benefits; to increase trustworthy benefits and reduce trustworthiness costs; to increase the rights protection benefits of injured consumers and reduce rights protection costs.

  Build a strong technical "firewall"

  "Network security is not only a legal issue, but also a technical issue. At present, the application of network security technology needs to be further improved." Zhu Wei said.

  Establish a mechanism for dealing with fraudulent websites, APPs, fraudulent phone calls, and fraudulent short messages; improve early warning information monitoring and detection capabilities, identify potential victims in a timely manner, and take dissuasive measures... "Opinions on Strengthening the Work on Strengthening the Control of Telecommunications and Network Fraud Illegal and Criminal Work" from In terms of technology and other aspects, it has made arrangements to strengthen the work of cracking down on illegal and criminal telecommunication network fraud.

Liu Dacheng said that network security is an important part of national security. , From the perspective of national security, there are currently malicious activities such as information theft, attack and destruction of key information infrastructure, network attacks on data, and data security risks.

  It is reported that since 2020, the intranets and information systems of relevant telecommunications operators, airlines and other units in China have repeatedly experienced abnormal network behaviors such as unauthorized login and data transmission, and are suspected of being attacked by the network.

  Sui Jing, director of the Cyber ​​Security Administration of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, said that efforts should be made to break through basic, universal, and forward-looking technologies, and build a cross-domain, multi-level innovation system for cyber security technology products and services.

It is reported that China Network Security Industry Innovation and Development Alliance was recently established by China Telecom, China Mobile, China Unicom, and domestic network security enterprises, industry user units, investment and financing institutions, etc. Network security industry exchange promotion platform, supply and demand docking platform, achievement transformation platform.

  In recent years, laws and regulations such as the Cybersecurity Law, the Data Security Law, the Personal Information Protection Law, and the Regulations on the Security Protection of Critical Information Infrastructures have been promulgated, and China's cybersecurity development environment has been continuously optimized.

For example, on February 15 this year, the "Network Security Review Measures" jointly revised and issued by 13 departments including the State Cyberspace Administration of China was officially implemented, proposing that online platform operators with more than 1 million users' personal information to go public abroad must declare the network The security review aims to further safeguard network security and data security and maintain national security.

  "Constructing a critical information infrastructure security system is an important part of network security. In the Internet era, all industries, including Internet finance, energy, electricity, transportation, communications, etc. are all networked, and the security of these countries' critical information infrastructure has been fully ensured. Only by guaranteeing the normal operation of the national economy and people's lives can we maintain the normal operation." Zhu Wei said.
