Digital China Golden Vista secures mainland China customs data with SQL Anywhere

By Allan Tan | Nov 11, 2008

Sybase and Digital China Golden Vista have partnered to develop an encryption module for SQL Anywhere that now provides China Customs with a dramatically enhanced level of security at mainland ports.

Developed in full compliance with national encryption standards, the new system ensures comprehensive data protection throughout the complex import-export documentation process for many millions of products that are shipped daily across the country’s borders.

Digital China Golden Vista is a key partner of China's e-Port Data Center, and has for many years been instrumental in enabling e-Port to provide a wide range of import and export data exchange services to more than 400,000 trading companies. As well as taking care of operations and management for China’s e-Port services, Digital China Golden Vista is also responsible for the organization’s application project development.

"Security is a vital factor in ensuring the effectiveness of customs services and nowhere is it more important than at China’s ports – which are among the busiest in the world,” said Chen Zhilin, CTO, Digital China Golden Vista. He added that they chose SQL Anywhere because it provides the most reliable performance in data transmission efficiency and security.

As an enterprise mobility solution, SQL Anywhere provides data management and synchronization for frontline environments including mobile devices and workgroup servers. It also supports rapid development and delivery of e-commerce solutions, and enables extensible, bi-directional data synchronization with remote devices, allowing data synchronization between back-end systems and the Digital Customs databases.

SQL Anywhere features 128-bit encryption options to ensure end-to-end security, which is essential for users that handle sensitive information.

"We are delighted that Digital China Golden Vista has chosen SQL Anywhere to match the critical security requirements of its public sector customers,” said Horace Chow, Vice President of Sybase Asia Pacific and General Manager of Sybase Greater China. “This partnership will enable us to make SQL Anywhere even better suited for mainland markets and to match the needs of government and public sector organizations that make up one of Sybase's most important vertical target markets."

The state of the Internet, Q4, 2011
Geography appears to play a role in frequency of observed attacks on specific ports. For example, Port 23 (Telnet) is a favorite target for attacks observed to be originating from South Korea and Turkey, where it accounted for more than five times the number of attacks targeting the next most popular port (445 in both countries). Other instances of geography-based port targeting include observed attacks centered on Port 1433 (Microsoft SQL Server) in China and on Port 80 (WWW/HTTP) in Indonesia.
