  • What is the NIST CSF?

    The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Cybersecurity Framework (CSF) is an internationally recognized system for assessing information security. It provides guidance for organizations seeking to enhance cybersecurity.


    NIST CSF consists of standards, guidelines, and best practices to manage cybersecurity. They put forward an Identify, Protect, Detect, Response, Recovery (IPDRR) model, which helps organizations minimize risks before, during, and after a security incident.


    Huawei Cloud has earned the highest level of NIST CSF certification, making Huawei Cloud the first cloud service provider certified with NIST CSF in China. This certifies Huawei Cloud can manage and reduce cyber security risks that may be faced by the cloud platform and can provide you with secure and trusted cloud services worldwide.


    Huawei Cloud periodically reviews its information security management systems based on changing conditions, so Huawei Cloud services will always be protected by industry-leading network risk management capabilities.

  • Which data centers are covered by Huawei Cloud's NIST CSF certification?

    The NIST CSF certification covers over 40 data centers belonging to Huawei Cloud globally, plus operation and maintenance services for them, including the provision of operation and maintenance services for Huawei Cloud data centers based on third-party IDCs, as well as those for Huawei Cloud's self-built data centers. You can download Huawei Cloud's NIST CSF certificate from Compliance Certificates.

  • Which Huawei Cloud services are covered by NIST CSF certification?

    The NIST CSF certification covers over 150 Huawei Cloud services including, but not limited to, Advanced Anti-DDoS (AAD), Web Application Firewall (WAF), Data Encryption Workshop (DEW), and Database Security Service (DBSS). You can download Huawei Cloud's NIST CSF certificate from Compliance Certificates.

  • How can Huawei Cloud help me align with the NIST CSF?

    Although Huawei Cloud has achieved the NIST CSF certification and provides you with secure and reliable cloud services, using services provided by Huawei Cloud does not ensure your organization's compliance with the NIST CSF requirements. NIST CSF requires us to continuously improve our organization's cyber security risk management system based on standards and best practices referenced in NIST CSF. To get your organization certified, you can invite a third-party independent certifying body to assess your information system.
