Lu's Drama "Flowers": Bao Zong Teaches You to Protect Capital Security

        The popular Chinese Mainland TV drama "Fanhua" in 2023 tells the story of the protagonist "Po", played by Hu Ge, in the 1990s in the Shanghai business market. The topic was endless before the broadcast. After the broadcast of the grand finale in January 2024, the popularity continued to grow, and many of the business war plots were run through the drama with the philosophy of "silence". This issue of "Information Network" takes you to learn methods for protecting information security from this seemingly plain but profound principle.

        The core principle of information security - "no noise"

        Abao said in the drama, "To do business, you need to first learn two words:" Don't make a sound. "Things that should not be said, unclear, poorly thought out, uncertain, or difficult for yourself or others are all" don't make a sound, "which means the importance of maintaining a low profile and acting cautiously. In the current digital age, being quiet is a survival wisdom and the golden rule for individuals and businesses to protect information security. Not disclosing personal information casually and carefully managing sensitive data can effectively reduce the risk of information leakage and avoid being attacked by hackers or other threats.

        The reverse effect of "sound"

        Compared to the low-key and cautious behavior of "not making a sound", the act of "making a sound" can easily provoke trouble and may lead to the following problems:

        1. High risk of information leakage: Online information is an important source for hackers to steal data. If users easily disclose their privacy, it will increase the risk of information leakage.

        2. High probability of hacker attacks: Oversharing or exposing personal movements on social media is like sending invitations to hackers, which not only makes personal privacy vulnerable to infringement, but also may result in identity theft.

        3. Economic losses suffered: Individuals or businesses may suffer economic losses due to security attacks, or may need to invest more resources to remedy the situation, leading to an expansion of losses.

        4. Reputation damage: The leakage of personal information and the capture of corporate systems can damage the social image or commercial reputation of the parties involved, and the company may lose its credibility due to information security protection, shaking its market position.

        5. Faced with legal risks: The leakage of information may violate relevant privacy protection regulations. If there is a legal lawsuit or even criminal responsibility, a greater cost will be paid.

        Good asset security practices

                The principle of silence should become a guiding principle for protecting information security. In addition to being cautious in their words and actions, the public and enterprises can also take relevant measures to strengthen protection. According to the "Guidelines for Security Control of Listed and OTC Information Communications - Chapter 6 Information Communications Security Protection and Control Measures", it is recommended that individuals "regularly update their software" and "use complex passwords and regularly change them to avoid account theft"; Enterprises should refer to practices such as "regularly checking network security settings", "strengthening employee information security training", "preventing data leakage", "using network security services for risk assessment", and "establishing a sound network security management system".

        The above measures can enhance the protection intensity of information security. Interested citizens can use the "Have I Been Pwned website service" again, enter their personal email address, and check if they have been affected in past data leakage incidents to take further remedial measures and avoid causing greater losses.

        "No noise" maximum

        In the increasingly complex digital age, the "silent" wisdom emphasized in the drama "Flowers" is even more precious. It is not only the way for shopping malls to survive, but also a protective shield for the online world. To cope with the threat and challenge of hackers, effective preventive measures must be taken to prevent them.
