CCTV news Channel news broadcast section on who to replace Windows XP

Recently, CCTV news channel "Live Room" section of the "Who to replace Windows XP, the Ministry of Information services want users to use the domestic operating system" report. NI, academician of Chinese Academy of Engineering, points out that operating system is the cornerstone of information system, and its autonomous ability is related to national information security. At the same time, CCTV also reported that at present, including excellent Kirin, the domestic Linux operating system, in terms of ease of use, such as the basic ability to replace XP, but still have a variety of ecological environment problems.

Since April 8 this year, Microsoft has stopped providing service support to Windows XP operating systems, which has aroused widespread concern and concerns about the security of the community and its customers. Ministry of Technology said that will continue to increase efforts to support China's Linux domestic operating system development and application, and hope that users can use the domestic operating system.

February, the Observer network has been concerned about the domestic computer operating system Red Flag Linux Encounter "Waterloo". However, the development of domestic operating system has not ended, at present there are many companies engaged in related development and operation, and in the world, the commercialization of Linux systems is also in the ascendant stage.

Recently, known as the "father of the firewall" title of the National Academy of Engineering Fang also said that upgrading Win7 or WIN8 than the continued use of XP more dangerous, the Government should foster the domestic operating system to gradually replace "XP."

Ministry: Hope users use domestic operating system

Industry and Information Technology Department chief engineer Zhang Feng said, hope that the majority of users concerned about the potential security risks of Windows XP stop service, take measures to do a good job of security precautions. I hope that the vast number of users of XP system to download and install the protection software provided by domestic enterprises to reduce the risk of information security. Ministry of Technology will continue to increase efforts to support the development and application of Linux operating system in China, but also hope that the majority of users to give more support for these products.

China currently has 70% of its computer users using Windows XP systems, Zhang said. In a large number of Chinese Windows XP users, including a large number of local government, for this part of the special users, no longer have the official security update Windows XP system is also faced with no small security risks.

CCTV: Is the domestic operating system mature, can replace the Windows XP operating system? Some of the mainstream domestic operating systems and Windows XP were contrasted by journalists.

The two computers in the picture are used by Microsoft's operating system and native operating system. The left side of the screen is the Windows XP operating system and the right side is the native operating system.

First of all, comparative application. You can see the difference between the two operating systems, both in layout and in terms of operation. In other words, the application of the two systems is similar. Users using domestic operating systems instead of Windows XP basically do not need to adapt.

Second, compare speed. Open a document and a video, you can see the speed is almost the same, a tie.

Then compare the richness of the application. Like the internet, see pictures, video, listen to music these basic functions, domestic operating systems are not inferior to Windows XP, but like PS, QQ, stock software and many game software, in the domestic operating system can not be used. The domestic operating system is less than Windows XP in terms of the richness of the application.

Hu Changjun, a researcher at the Ministry of Software and integrated Circuit Promotion Center: Commercial companies must be primarily commercial interests. If the share of the market as a whole, the global Linux share may be less than 1%, 95 or more may be XP and other Windows series, Apple (585.54,-2.45,-0.42%) iOS also occupies a part. Because it (domestic system) occupies a relatively small market share, in the same domestic. Of course, commercial companies are not willing to develop software.

In support of hardware, like some mobile phones, digital cameras and other products, can not connect with this operating system. Domestic operating systems are also inferior to Windows XP.

Byung, vice president of the winning Software Co., Ltd.: The main reason is that the device manufacturer does not provide the Linux operating system with good support, it is not to provide a corresponding driver, so that Linux support in this respect is relatively weak.

In terms of price, there are domestic operating systems for free. The retail price of Win8.1 varies by version, to hundreds of yuan to thousands of dollars. In terms of price, the domestic operating system has advantages.

Domestic operating system relation national information security

CCTV host: Through the above, you can see that in the application of the rich level, domestic operating system and Windows XP still have a small gap. Perhaps some people think, since Microsoft's operating system is more mature, then use Microsoft's good, why to develop domestic operating system? Not really, because the domestic operating system is related to national information security.

NI, an academician of the Chinese Academy of Engineering, says the applications on the computer work with the support of the operating system. For example, the operating system is like a foundation, and the application is like a house on a foundation, all through the ground to the house. In other words, as long as the computer network, who control the operating system, the computer has mastered all the operational information.

Academician of Chinese Academy of Engineering NI: Operating system manufacturers can easily obtain a variety of user sensitive information, your identity, account, Address Book, mobile phone number ... So much data together, if you use large data analysis, our national economic and social activities in fact can be understood. Statistics are more accurate and faster than the statistics Department figures.

Ni says the fear is not unfounded. Snowden, the protagonist of the Prism event, revealed that Microsoft had worked with the U.S. government to help the National Security Agency get encrypted file data on the Internet.

Ni said that because the operating system is related to the country's information security, Russia, Germany and other countries have been introduced in the government departments of computers, the use of national operating system software.

NI suggested that, although the country currently has support for domestic operating system measures, but dispersed in various parts, should be raised to the central level of unified coordination. The state should further increase its support for domestic operations in government procurement. Especially for some industries, worried about the use of domestic operating systems, if there are problems need to take responsibility for the situation, the relevant departments should take the responsibility of exemption measures. At the same time, the development of domestic operating system, should not rely solely on domestic operating system enterprises, in the Chinese Academy of Engineering, the advocacy of many academicians by the China Electronic Information Industry Group, China Electronics Technology Group, China Software Industry Association and other enterprises and institutions jointly launched the China Intelligent Terminal operating system Industry Alliance, This would change the embarrassment of domestic operating systems lacking software and hardware support.

Hequan, academician of Chinese Academy of Engineering, said that Microsoft has stopped its support for Windows XP, bringing a rare opportunity for the development of domestic operating systems, "Don't think that the Apple, Google is very strong now, the innovation is eternal." As long as you can stick to innovation, then there are opportunities. ”
