🌐 Cyber Threats Soar: Huawei Exec Urges Global Security Overhaul

Imagine a villain from your favorite Marvel movie weaponizing the internet 💻 – Huawei cybersecurity leader Aloysius Cheang says we’re already living it. At Tashkent’s Cyber Security Summit, he warned that digital attacks have escalated from “disruption to destruction,” with real-world consequences that could “kill lives.” Cue the collective *chills* 😬.

30 Years of Spinning Wheels?

Cheang didn’t mince words: Billions spent on cybersecurity still leave us stuck in the ’90s. “We’re solving problems the wrong way,” he argued, comparing current strategies to “missing the bullseye.” His solution? A total mindset shift – think less “band-aid fixes” and more “root-cause surgery.” 🔍

Supply Chains: The New Battlefield

Remember that Mission: Impossible scene where tech gets hacked mid-production? It’s happening IRL. Cheang highlighted Lebanon’s recent pager hack – attackers allegedly planted backdoors during manufacturing, bypassing traditional defenses. “Critical infrastructure is vulnerable before it even reaches users,” he warned. Translation: Imagine power grids or hospitals compromised out of the box. 😱

As Gen Z’s digital natives, this isn’t just tech talk – it’s about safeguarding our hyper-connected future. 🌍💻 Will governments and companies finally team up? Stay tuned.
