Regarding the synergic development of cyberspace security, Zhou Hongyi, the company's chief executive, noted that the transparent collaboration systems, based on mutual trust, should be established between different governments, enterprises and companies.

But, intense challenges must be overcome before the goals become reality, as individual interests and competition raised in the industry won't let companies easily share their core data or tip each other off, let alone sharing anti-leak strategies between countries.

"But we've also seen opportunities in two perspectives," Qi said.

According to Qi, with the business growth and expansion of both state-owned and private companies, cyberspace protection providers from across the globe have more opportunities to jointly work in feeding increasing demand in the market.
