Crafting China Literature
Author: Yang Liu, China Cultural Information Association

Rongan China has been deeply engaged in cryptographic security technology in the financial industry for more than ten years, and has participated in the formulation of many industry standards and specifications for Internet banking security, mobile payment security, privacy computing products, etc. From 2012-2013, the financial industry promoted domestic cryptographic algorithms, and the company participated in the discussion of the promotion plan and assisted many banks in formulating domestic cryptographic transformation plans, and in many practices, the company's core competitiveness has been continuously improved.

Rongan China's products have been applied to many customers such as State Administration of Taxation, Agricultural Bank of China, Huaxia Bank and Bank of Shanghai. With the development of cloud computing and blockchain, the demand for privacy computing has emerged more and more, and issues such as data security and personal privacy protection are widely concerned by the society. The change of data industry regulation requires data sharing under the premise of protecting data security and personal privacy, and data "available but not visible" has become an indispensable new infrastructure. With deep insight into data security needs and pain points, Rongan China began to invest in research and product development of privacy computing technology in 2019, and successfully developed "Rongan Privacy Gateway", which has been gradually applied in many industries and customers.

Data is constantly pouring out and racing, and Rongan China is becoming the most reliable guardian in the process of data operation.

The second decade after the millennium, the world ushered in the information explosion era, as the ontology of carrying information - data, is playing a pivotal role in the life of the general public, invisible and intangible data, laying a solid foundation for the progress of society, the country and even human civilization, but because data often involves privacy, confidentiality However, since data often involves privacy and confidentiality, the amount of data stock and circulation is growing exponentially, and someone needs to escort the security of data.

Grasp the wind direction of development, and set steady footsteps

The very straightforward name of  Rongan China contains not only the typical Chinese brand refinement, but also carries the unique family sentiment of Chinese entrepreneurs - serving China's financial security is indeed the main development direction and desire of Rongan China for a long time. In the introduction of the company's service system, we can see this expression: "Rongan China has always emphasized that customers are the partners of the enterprise and the embodiment of the value of the enterprise. The company has established the customer-centered principle from the day it was founded, and takes it as its responsibility to provide excellent products and satisfactory services to customers. The company has established a perfect customer service support system, with the market as the guide, customer service as the focus, product development and technical support as the basic guarantee, so that Rongan China has formed a coordinated and mutually promoting relationship in new product development, marketing, customer service and technical support."

Every person living in the information age is a part of the data, and behind a large amount of data contains a large amount of personal information and confidential content, data is the cornerstone of the information age, and also the biggest uncertainty.

Rongan China is becoming the guardian who escorts the safe circulation and use of data - figuratively speaking, if we have solved the problem of how to make "data safe" in the past ten years, Rongan China today is adding wheels and engines to this safe. The wheels and engines are added, so that the data is completely encrypted at the beginning, during and at the end of the high-speed operation, and even at the time of application - under the premise that the theory is relatively complete, there is still a long chain for the technology to be transformed into market value. It must be said that this is the contribution of Rongan China to the development of digital economy, as the "Rong'an Privacy Gateway" has successfully landed and entered into substantial commercial application scenarios.

 At the present stage, the main service objects of Rongan China are concentrated in the fields of finance and insurance, intelligent government, intelligent medical care, etc. Rong'an privacy computing products provide banks, insurance, Internet financial institutions, etc. with a secure connection between internal interdepartmental departments of financial institutions and external data sources in the process of digital transformation and intelligent application, so as to realize data security integration, joint risk control modeling, joint marketing screening, etc. without leaking data from all parties. In the process of digital transformation and intelligent application, financial institutions can securely connect internal interdepartmental and external data sources without disclosing data from all parties to achieve data security integration, joint risk control modeling, joint marketing screening, etc., which greatly enhance the accuracy and controllability of financial intelligence. With the policy slogans of "the most run once" and "I do practical things for the masses", Rongan privacy computing products break the data barriers between government agencies and departments, ensure effective protection of sensitive information of government work, realize the safe use of data and It also makes a significant contribution to the comprehensive construction of smart government and smart city and the safe use of big data in government affairs. In the application of intelligent medical services, the company's products can solve the problem of interconnection and interoperability of case data among medical institutions, and provide medical institutions with data sharing and value mining by conducting statistics, comparison and analysis of disease incidence trends, probability prediction and treatment effects under the premise of protecting personal health and privacy data.

Looking back at the eleven-year development history, the successful experience of Rongan China can be summarized as "insistence, precision, uniqueness and craftsmanship". This is the corporate culture that is engraved in the bones of Rongan and flowing in the blood of Rongan people.

Breakthrough industry bottlenecks and build a first-class team

Rongan China has always emphasized that Rong'an privacy gateway products are different from general computing products, and firmly insists on the direction of domestic cryptography and the idea of independent and controllable security product design, which is the philosophy of brand positioning and also the attitude of conforming to the future development trend.

This technology involves computation theory and cryptography, and Rongan China has always insisted on the principle that talent is the first productive force when forming a team, and is committed to finding compound talents and "bull" in niche fields. Such a team building idea is not a decision made overnight, but a tried and tested guideline for employing people, and Rongan China always adheres to the three degree rule of "attitude, temperament and depth" in selecting and employing talents, evaluating talents from multiple dimensions such as their character and technical strength, and letting the right people go to the right positions. This is a good prescription in the process of polishing products and forging brands.

Such selection and employment criteria are in fact the inevitable result of Rongan China's years of deep plowing in the field of domestic cryptography and data circulation, from the elaborate polishing of products at the beginning of the business to the comprehensive involvement in the identity authentication business of dozens of banks in China at a later stage, and from the development of a single customer to a group of customers, Rongan China, as a typical technology company, always regards talents as the first productive force. In the company's planning, the enterprise and the talents are not the traditional employment relationship, but the comradeship and cooperation relationship of mutual recognition, mutual support and hand in hand, and the equity distribution and strong incentive are the key to stimulate the creativity of the enterprise, and it is also the gratitude and return of the company to the entrepreneurial team for their unfailing support along the way.

At the same time, Rongan China insists on the principle of open, efficient and flexible employment, and employs only talented people. The whole enterprise has an inclusive and positive employment atmosphere. In the process of the company's development, we have encountered many low points, and some employees have chosen to leave. The company recognizes that "the right person does the right thing at the right time". Therefore, it is understandable that some excellent employees chose to leave because the environment was not suitable for them to play their value. The company is developing and the market is changing, so many employees who have left have chosen to come back and play an important role at the right time.

Enhancing brand vitality and focusing on privacy business

Ten years of high-quality development is a decade of product perseverance, craftsmanship perseverance and service perseverance. Looking back at the journey of Rongan China, we can easily find that this is a team with the spirit of innovation, but also knows how to keep the original heart.

"After I got out of university, I worked for many foreign companies, and in 2008, a financial crisis made the whole world pattern and international situation change dramatically, so I decided to do some work that I was interested in and in line with my professional background. For a long time, we have insisted on cryptographic technology as the basis and the direction of domestic cryptography, and tried to do things that meet the attributes of the times. After ten years of hard work, we have accumulated a lot of valuable customer resources." Xiao Yi introduced.

Xiao Yi still has a lot of feelings when mentioning an important milestone in the company's development process. According to past experience, the company did not expect much because it was a state-owned bank after all, and it was still just a company in a difficult start-up stage, but surprisingly, such a huge volume of customers as Agricultural Bank of China dared to put down their stature and did not judge the hero by the size of the company, but paid more attention to Instead of judging by the size of the company, they pay more attention to substantive indicators such as technological innovation and product quality. Thanks to this, Rongan China has become the supplier of this large state-owned bank.

Rongan China also did not disappoint this recognition and trust, taking product quality as the most important vitality and productivity, from the underlying algorithm to the assembly of physical parts, even if it is more expensive, more troublesome and more time-consuming, it is never allowed to reduce product quality as the price. Such originality is both a driving force and a lighthouse in the ten-year stormy journey. In the past few years, Rongan China's products have benefited more than ten million individual and corporate users by serving more than thirty financial clients.

In 2019, Rongan China keenly captures the importance of privacy computing technology in the development of digital economy and invests a lot of resources in the research and development of related products. It has also become one of the first companies to successfully pass the evaluation of "Financial Scene Privacy Computing Products" by China ICT Academy. In August this year, Rongan China was also included as a member of the "Medical Technology Security Lab" of China ICT.

The brand, as the "coat" of the product, plays a pivotal role in any industry. Rongan China's products are tested in terms of privacy, security, data protection mechanism and strength. Market-hardened products can incubate excellent brands, and excellent brands, moreover, can feed superior products.

On July 30, 2021, the "China Brand Innovation Development Project" and the selection meeting of the column of "Great Craftsmanship" were held in Beijing, and Xiao Yi, chairman of Rongan China Technology (Beijing) Co., Ltd. was invited to participate in the selection meeting and passed the preliminary examination of the column of "Great Craftsmanship". Rongan China officially passed the strict re-examination by the program team of "Great Artisan" on August 13, and Xiao Yi, the chairman of the board, will soon participate in the recording of "Great Artisan", communicate and dialogue with the famous host of the program, tell the history of brand creation, and discuss the story behind the development of the enterprise together. "This is a good opportunity, I have always believed that branding should be a comprehensive project, the brand contains many aspects of the product, technology, service, culture, etc., and not overnight, ten years of development process, we have matured a lot, but also for the values of the enterprise should have their own more firmly adhere to. At such a point, using a platform like CCTV, I also want to encourage many small and micro enterprises who are dedicated to innovation and industry like me, the spring of innovation and entrepreneurship has really come." Xiao Yi said.

Nowadays, Rongan China needs a broader platform to show China's strength in the field of data privacy computing, which is not only a problem of Rongan China, but also a problem of whether Chinese brands can achieve a bend in the 5G+ era and truly stand in the forest of world brands. In the future, Rongan China will focus on a broader stage, focusing on the development of digital economy enabled by privacy computing. The wave of digital economy has become irreversible, and Rongan China's work has become a means to keep the bottom line, improve efficiency and promote fairness in the wave of digital economy.

Insight into the pain points of the industry, solving customer problems, helping the development of the digital economy, and creating a more secure and efficient "digital China" is the direction of development under the east wind of the policy, and it is also the persistent belief of Rongan China to comply with social progress with its own tenacity and pioneering.
