Data Protection Technologies

For data protections, you are advised to protect Huawei Cloud account credentials and use IAM to set up individual user accounts. In this way, each user is given only the permissions necessary to fulfill their job duties. We also recommend that you secure your data in the following ways:

  • Use multi-factor authentication (MFA) for each account.
  • Use Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) or Transport Layer Security (TLS) protocols to communicate with Huawei Cloud resources. TLS 1.2 or later is recommended.
  • Use CTS to configure API and user activity logging.
  • Use Data Encryption Workshop (DEW), along with all default security controls within Huawei Cloud services.

We strongly advise you against putting confidential or sensitive information (such as your customers' email addresses) into tags or free-form fields (such as a name field) when you work with Cloud Eye or other Huawei Cloud services using the console, API, Huawei Cloud command-line interface (CLI), or Huawei Cloud software development kit (SDK). Any data that you enter into tags or free-form fields form field used for names may be used for billing or diagnostic logs. If you provide the URL of an external server, we strongly recommend that you do not include credential information in the URL to validate your request to that server.
