Statement of Work (SOW)

Service Overview

Customers have to use professional capabilities to ensure data security, due to stricter laws and regulations, increasing data leakage, and the urgent need for professional security of cloud services. Moreover, cloud security capabilities are becoming increasingly intricate, posing challenges for enterprise users to properly configure security policies.

To address these issues, Huawei Cloud launches Storage Security Optimization Service (SSOS). It evaluates customers' storage service statuses, provides key capabilities to identify and handle data security risks, and helps customers reduce costs of handling audits as well as minimize the risks of business suspension, criminal punishment, economic loss, and reputational loss caused by data leakage.
