Concerns about national information security IBM Wisdom Earth challenged

Giants are starting to race in the "Smart city" market.　　IBM put forward the concept of "wisdom Earth" as early as 2008, in China with "intelligent City" as the cut-in point, has carried out many landing projects. Local enterprises in China Digital also unwilling to publish "digital city" strategy to deal with the urbanization, regionalization and urban information development trend.　　Followed by Cisco, Tsinghua Tongfang, Neusoft Group and other IT enterprises.　　With the acceleration of China's urbanization and the introduction of the National information Industry Revitalization plan, the local government's enthusiasm for the construction of "intelligent City" for the purpose of attracting foreign investment is high, which undoubtedly contains huge business opportunities for it vendors. Ministry of Software and integrated Circuit Promotion Center (CSIP) director Wang Weixin to the Times weekly reporter said that intelligent city construction because it is a huge system engineering, involving urban economic and social aspects, so must be led by the Government, pay attention to the cultivation of independent intellectual property rights, autonomous control of local companies,　　In addition, we should be wary of information security issues and avoid duplication of construction.　　Earlier, a report that IBM "intelligent earth" may threaten national information security.　　The Expo Garden has become a typical case of urbanization and informatization has become the two major trends in the future. At present, China is in rapid urbanization and urban transformation, the last 17 sessions of the V plenary considered the adoption of the "Twelve-Five plan", but also explicitly called for speeding up the process of urbanization. "Our Government attaches great importance to the construction of urban informatization and intelligence, and the construction of digital city and Intelligent city as the focus of urban development."　　Wang said that the construction of "intelligent City" is of great significance in adjusting economic structure, transforming production mode and improving people's livelihood.　　Csip believes that the core of a smarter city is the creation of a new urban ecosystem, supported by new tools and technologies, that encompasses government, citizens and business organizations. On January 28, 2009, at the Roundtable on American business leaders, IBM chairman Palmisano A "Smart Earth" strategy for the US president.　　Palmisano that sensors can be embedded and equipped to the grid, railways, buildings, dams, oil and gas pipelines and other people's attention to physical infrastructure and goods, the formation of objects linked, and then through the central computer cluster and cloud computing to integrate it to achieve intelligent and social and physical world integration. Wisdom of the Earth is a vision, intelligent city is the starting point for IBM to promote.　　In China, IBM has launched solutions for power, healthcare, cities, Transportation, supply chain (logistics) and banking in 6 major areas. At present, IBM "intelligent earth" is advancing methodically. August 2009, IBM signed a memorandum of strategic cooperation with Guangdong Information Industry office to create a world-class "intelligent city" for Guangzhou. September, also signed a strategic cooperation agreement with the Shenyang government to build "ecological Shenyang" and "Intelligent City". After that, IBM also held hands in Kunming, Beijing, Nanjing and other cities. In addition IBM "Wisdom Earth" also gradually in the electricity, finance and other industries infiltration. At the same time, as the main sponsor of the Shanghai World Expo, IBM is putting "ExpoGarden "as a" smart city "typical case to operate.　　At present, many local governments or industry authorities have put "smart city" into the local national economic and social development "Twelve-Five" planning of the major issues of the preliminary study, and some even have begun to prepare "smart city" special planning.　　IBM to The Times weekly reporter said, after the end of the expo, there will be many major cooperation projects landing.　　Shenzhou Digital challenges IBM In addition to IBM, other IT companies are also beginning to covet the "smart city" to build this "big cake." February 2009, Cisco launched the "Intelligent Urbanization" blueprint for integrated urban management. The blueprint recommends the use of Cisco networks as public safety, transport, construction, energy, medical and educational utilities.　　Cisco says it will invest 5 billion of research and development funds each year in the area of intelligent living facilities.　　and local enterprises digital China, but also the construction of urban informatization as a strategic direction for the transformation of IT services.　　Guo Wei, Chairman and CEO of Shenzhou Digital Board, told reporters that the future "digital City" space is very broad, 2010, digital China began to exert full force "digital city" strategy.　　He revealed that the digital China has implemented 4 digital cities, is also involved in more than 20 cities in the planning of information.　　October 19, 2010, Shenzhou Digital announced that it will hold the Asia-Pacific ERP leading enterprises in the group's total equity of 30%, to become the largest corporate shareholder of the group, and this joint is exactly the "ibm+ Kingdee software" against. Guo Wei said that digital China hopes to rely on the tripod group, improve the IT service business and Digital City strategy in the overall layout of the country. Ding Jie Group Chairman Sun Binbin also to the Times weekly reporter said, "Ding Czech to digital enterprises as the goal and object, and enterprises are the natural components of the city, so in digital digital city strategy will play an important role." "For the competition with international" predators "such as IBM and Cisco, Guo Wei said," Digital City "is an industrial ecological chain characterized by regional economy and marked by the process of urban informatization.　　In this process, as the IT industry chain downstream enterprises, have their own position and enough space. "IBM's Smarter City is more plentiful and richer than the digital digital city strategy in China," he said. Although they still have a lot of things can not fall, but from the framework and the system is still very complete, this is also worthy of digital learning model.　　"But digital China also has its own advantages, Guo Wei said, digital China from the distributor transformation, with channels and resources, such as local enterprises advantages, in addition, the digital China has long been committed to government, finance, telecommunications and manufacturing industries such as information, with a whole industry chain integration capabilities.　　Threaten national information security?　At present, IBM first put forward "intelligent city", and has abundant resources, technology accumulation, at the same time at the Shanghai World Expo Exhibition Opportunities, in the domestic "smart city" in the Battle of the leading position.　Shanyan, general manager of IBM Expo Project, said to The Times reporter, "The World Expo is an IBM intelligent city of a landing point, in 184 days to receive more than 70 million people, is the future of Intelligent city operation practice."　　According to her, IBM specifically participated in the ticketing management information system, traffic information Management Systems, Expo website information Barrier-free projects, but also include the Saudi national Pavilion, the National Grid Enterprise Pavilion, Shanghai Pavilion, three branch of the exhibition area, such as the expo behind the many operations support projects. At present, IBM has been with China's 22 cities to start a smart city cooperation, and in the medical, tourism, energy and other industries have landed projects, for example, at the end of November 2009, IBM and China's new energy industry, new RUI New Austrian group together from the Intelligent Energy industry cooperation,　　Push the IBM Smart City strategy to the ground in China. "In the future, we will continue to work with Chinese cities to exchange intelligent city landing programs, with a focus on public safety, Food and drug safety, electricity, health care, water resources management, transportation, and service-oriented government," he said.　　"said Chanda, chairman and chief executive officer of IBM Greater China.　　However, the IBM "smart city" in the domestic large-scale promotion at the same time was questioned by all sides.　　April 9 This year, the Ministry of Industry Minister Liyi mentioned IBM "smart city", said that for foreign countries these new ideas and new strategies, we should be enlightened, vigorously develop strategic emerging industries, but also to be vigilant, can not be subject to people.　　In fact, the question of IBM "Wisdom Earth", originated in the Ministry of Software and integrated Circuit Promotion Center in 2009, "IBM Wisdom Earth" of the understanding and thinking, the center shoulder the role of government decision-making support platform. Wang's prestige is the main drafters of the report. "The report objectively analyzes the connotation, nature, characteristics and commercial purpose of the intelligent Earth, analyzes the positive factors of the intelligent Earth to promote the integration of the two, analyzes the influence and challenge of the intelligent Earth, and puts forward strategies to deal with the intelligent earth Strategy."　　"he said.　　The report found that IBM "intelligent earth" to achieve a great difficulty, will create new technical barriers, and even threaten national information security. To the outside world, IBM said the "Smart Earth" initiative would not undermine national security and information security, "nor would it affect government control over critical information."　　"What it can bring is better use of data (in the way our customers decide), make the data more meaningful, and help anticipate the results of business operations. Some experts say companies such as Intel and Microsoft have been repeatedly questioned over the years, such as the backdoor issue of Microsoft's operating system, which has also been raised to the point of national security. Not only in China, but also in other countries around the world, the threat of information security is felt, and as Internet technology evolves toward things, this "smart Earth" event is only a concentrated release of this fear.
