Huawei experts will also highlight how 5G can empower industries within the context of the Fourth Industrial Revolution.
“Cybersecurity and privacy protection is not the responsibility of only one enterprise, nor can it be achieved by one enterprise alone. Cybersecurity needs to be built by the whole society. With the use of advanced technologies accelerating more than ever, particularly in the post-pandemic era, we need to keep pushing the boundaries of technology and driving digital transformation forward in a secure and safe cyberspace,” Jiawei Liu, CEO of Huawei UAE, concluded.
