扩大信息安全领域市场,美亚柏科蓄势待发

厦门市美亚柏科信息股份有限公司作为中国最大的电子数据取证供应商,抓住国家改革开放带来的机遇,公司在信息安全领域的地位稳步提高。

美亚柏科董事长滕达表示:“如果没有改革开放,就没有今天的滕达和美亚柏科。

滕达董事长回忆到,在改革开放之初,他的父亲就创办了一家工厂,并设法送给了他一台在当时很少见的计算机。这不仅促使滕达萌生了对计算机技术的兴趣,也为后来美亚柏科的转型埋下了伏笔。

改革开放40年里,这家位于福建厦门的公司从一家电脑销售公司转变为一家电子数据取证和信息安全公司,其公司估值目前超过了150亿元人民币(按现汇率折算为约22.2亿美元)。

滕达董事长称:“信息安全保护变得越来越必要,其中犯罪监测和事后调查尤为重要。”

受此类服务需求的推动,美亚柏科一直致力于从电子数据媒介中识别并提取证据,如计算机硬盘,移动电话和介质存储卡。

除此之外,美亚柏科加大力度与公安部门合作,协助其建立更大规模的安全管理平台,这也与地方政府着力激励大数据相关产业的发展政策密切相关。

滕达董事长还谈到,随着厦门城市大数据产业的快速发展,公司也在不断发展壮大。

厦门是中国最早的四个经济特区之一,是福建省最大的自由贸易区所在地,近几十年来,厦门经历了前所未有的发展。

城市数据显示,去年厦门本地大数据业务的销售收入约为400亿元,同比增长超过100%,这也为美亚柏科等公司的大数据市场扩张提供了强大动力。

美亚柏科控股子公司美亚商鼎的负责人王志永表示,美亚柏科帮助当地政府部门在中国建立了近50个大数据市场监管平台。通过这些平台,当地行政执法单位可以收集数据并发现潜在风险,从而大大提高了工作效率。

事实证明,为社会带来效益对公司来说是一项富有成效的工作。财务报告显示,今年美亚柏科第一季度的收入超过1.84亿元,同比增长27.54%。

美亚柏科还依赖先进技术,寻求新的增长引擎,如大数据、人工智能和云计算。今年早些时候,美亚柏科建立了一个人工智能服务平台,将人工智能技术应用于电子数据取证和信息安全。

当前,美亚柏科的重要任务之一就是发展人工智能,通过该最新技术推动公司业务发展。

行业分析师表示,政府和企业对电子数据取证服务的需求很高。因此,该领域仍有很大的发展空间。

中国电子学会计算机取证专家委员会主任丁丽萍说,“在任何环境和系统中都没有绝对的安全,中国在电子数据取证的道路上任重而道远。”

Meiya Pico to beef up presence in info security

Digital forensics provider to develop rapidly through latest technologies

Xiamen Meiya Pico Information Co Ltd, China's largest provider of digital forensics, is set to beef up its presence in the information security sector by exploiting opportunities brought by the country's reform and opening-up.

"It is the reform and opening-up that have enabled my own self-development as well as the success of the company," said Teng Da, president of Meiya Pico.

Teng recalled that right after the beginning of the reform and opening-up, his father had set up a factory and managed to bring him a computer, which was rare at that time.

This novelty stoked Teng's initial interest in computing technology, which also laid a foundation for the transformation of Meiya Pico later.

Within 40 years, the Xiamen, Fujian-based company has morphed from a computer sales firm to a digital forensics and information security company with a valuation of more than 15 billion yuan ($2.27 billion).

"Protecting information has become increasingly necessary, among which, crime monitoring and post-crime investigations are of great importance," said Teng.

Driven by demand for such services, the company has been focusing on identifying and extracting evidence from digital media such as computer hard drives, mobile phones and media storage cards.

Meiya Pico has also scrambled to cooperate with an array of public security departments to help build safety management platforms on a larger scale, reflecting a broader effort by local governments to encourage the big data-related industry.

Teng also noted that the company is growing stronger with the rapid development of Xiamen and the city's big data industry.

Xiamen, one of the first four special economic zones in China, is home to the largest free trade area of Fujian province and has witnessed unprecedented development in the past decades.

City data showed local big data businesses generated about 40 billion yuan in sales revenue last year, up more than 100 percent year-on-year, providing a strong impetus to companies like Meiya Pico to expand further.

According to Wang Zhiyong, head of Meiya Shangding, a subsidiary of Meiya Pico, the parent company has helped local government departments build nearly 50 big data market supervision and management platforms across China.

Through these platforms, local authorities and administrative units can collect data and detect potential risks, which greatly improves their work efficiency.

Bringing benefits to the society has proved to be a fruitful exercise for the company. Its financial reports show a revenue of more than 184 million yuan in the first quarter of this year, up 28 percent year-on-year.

It is also banking on advanced technologies including big data, artificial intelligence or AI and cloud computing to seek new growth engines.

Earlier this year, it established an AI lab to apply the technology to digital forensics and information security.

The company said it would include AI among its top priorities in order to advance its business through cutting-edge technologies.

Industry analysts said there is high demand for digital forensic services from both governments and enterprises. So, the field still has big room for growth.

"There is no absolute safety in any environment and system, and China still has a long way to go on the road to digital forensics," said Ding Liping, chairwoman of the Computer Forensics Expert Committee at the Chinese Institute of Electronics.
