What are the current characteristics of the times that bring challenges to the work of secrecy

The widespread use of computers and their networks, the continuous development of modern information technology, and the extensive promotion of e-government have brought serious challenges to the protection of state secrets. We must hold a correct attitude to the new situation facing the confidentiality work, new features, and actively safeguard national security and interests.

First, the rapid development of e-government to the confidentiality of the work put forward

a new research topic. The development of modern information technology and the promotion of e-government, in the digital world appeared a virtual e-government and its departments, it is the reality of the government and departments of the mirror image. In this way, the coverage of secrecy work also extends from the government departments in the real physical world to the e-government and its departments in the virtual digital world. This extension, is the state secret information equipment from the original typewriter, telephone and other traditional equipment to a variety of computer and network equipment, storage of state secret information carrier from the traditional paper carrier to the expansion of the various optical, electrical, magnetic and other electronic carriers, the scope of classified personnel are also correspondingly expanded to the design of classified computer information systems, installation, management, personnel use, confidentiality, whether it is the information confidentiality, and classified personnel management tasks are very important. There are also classified personnel management tasks are very heavy, to the confidentiality of the work put forward a new research topic.

Second, the arrival of the information age puts forward higher requirements for confidentiality. The development of information so that the object of confidentiality management to increase, expand the scope of coverage, not only aggravated the task of confidentiality work, but also put forward higher requirements for confidentiality work. Firstly, the confidentiality department has higher requirements. Confidentiality in the information age is a very wide range of systematic projects, which requires the confidentiality department from the role of the previous simple managers to further expand the role of legal counseling, technical services, confidentiality management of the trinity of integrated departments. Secondly, the quality of confidentiality cadres is more demanding. The information age requires confidentiality cadres with strong knowledge of laws and regulations, computer technology, network technology, preventive technology and other modern high-tech means to become aware of the law, understand the technology, good management of composite talents. Third, the confidentiality technology requirements are higher. Confidentiality technology in the information age involves all aspects of confidentiality equipment, a variety of network security and confidentiality equipment, as well as network isolation and other confidentiality prevention equipment and security operating systems, etc., are confidentiality technology, modern information technology, the epitome.

Third, the development of modern information technology to increase the difficulty of information security and confidentiality. Information development and many scientific development, are a double-edged sword. When most people use information technology to improve efficiency, create more wealth for society at the same time, there are some people use the mastery of technical means to illegally invade the information systems of others, stealing, tampering, destroying important information data. At present, the main means of stealing secrets for China's computer information system are hacking, illegal access, radiation theft, line eavesdropping, virus invasion and so on. Due to the computer and network systems in the security and confidentiality deficiencies, but also due to the ideology is different from the Western countries, making our e-government not only face illegal attacks on individuals, but also face the threat of some potential information warfare.

With the rapid development of modern information technology, leaders and cadres at all levels must always keep a tight rein on confidentiality, and must not be paralyzed. Recently, the deputy secretary of Shandong Provincial Party Committee, Qingdao Municipal Party Committee Secretary Du Shicheng in the confidentiality of the work of the instructions pointed out that: "confidentiality of the work of the security and stability of the country, we must always pay attention to unremittingly, to ensure that nothing is wrong". The reason why Qingdao's confidentiality work in the province and even at the forefront of the country, it is important to benefit from the leaders at all levels of great importance, so the confidentiality work to further enhance the ideological awareness of the whole population, and then further increase the strength of publicity and education, in order to better provide a strong political guarantee for Qingdao's economic development and social progress.

First of all, to strengthen the construction of confidential cadres, and constantly improve the quality of confidential cadres. According to the new situation on the confidentiality department and confidentiality cadres of higher requirements, to vigorously strengthen the confidentiality cadres, especially the confidentiality of the technical team construction, improve the team's political quality, business quality, legal quality, service consciousness, management level and law enforcement capabilities. To strengthen the cultivation and training of secrecy cadres, we can organize visits and exchanges of learning activities to broaden the vision of cadres and enrich their theoretical and policy level through various forms such as studying in party schools and holding short- and medium-term training courses for cadres. Continue to do a good job of managing state secret matters personnel licensing system, and strive to create a politically reliable, excellent style, good discipline of full-time and part-time confidentiality cadres.

Secondly, the combination of technical defense and human defense. In the face of all kinds of information theft means, on the one hand, we must increase the strength of human defense, always build a strong ideological line of defense of confidentiality; on the other hand, we must vigorously develop confidentiality technology, equipped with advanced confidentiality technology and equipment, and maximize the role of human and machine systems to achieve the organic combination of technical defense and human defense. At the same time, to strengthen collaboration with public security, security and other functional departments, increase the intensity of law enforcement inspections, to achieve complementary advantages, joint action, heavy attack, the real formation of information security and confidentiality of law enforcement and management integration, to establish the authority of law enforcement and management departments in order to receive good results.

Again, strengthen the monitoring to carry out regular confidentiality checks. Effective monitoring of the city's confidentiality, one is to carry out regular confidentiality checks. The main content of the confidentiality inspection is: the confidential organs, units and their staff to implement confidentiality laws and regulations, the implementation of confidentiality discipline, to fulfill the confidentiality obligations and responsibilities, to complete the confidentiality task of the situation to understand and supervise the activities. Article 29 of the Secrecy Law clearly stipulates: "Organs and units shall educate their staff on secrecy and regularly inspect secrecy work." This shows that carrying out confidentiality inspections is a necessary activity given by national laws and regulations, and is an obligation that organs and units should fulfill. Secondly, carrying out regular confidentiality inspection is an important way to strengthen confidentiality management. Confidentiality inspection on the work to implement effective supervision and promotion, found typical experience, advanced practices, expanding the work of ideas, to achieve the purpose of incentivizing the advanced, exchange of experience, learn from the best, *** with the purpose of improving. Third, to carry out regular confidentiality checks is an important means of implementing the policy of confidentiality. Through the inspection can be found through the loss and leakage of secret hidden trouble and seedling, nip the problem in the bud, and urge the relevant departments to take measures to improve, and effectively prevent the leakage of state secrets, so as to ensure the security of state secrets, to achieve the purpose of maintaining stability and promoting development.
