The arrival of artificial intelligence, blockchain, Internet of things or 5g is one of the most significant trends. The maximum utilization of network security and e-commerce will also become the mainstream of the business community in 2021, and the application of science and technology will be tested by the epidemic as this year.

   1. Artificial intelligence: it will continue to be one of the key technology trends of enterprise innovation in 2021, and will make the greatest contribution to promoting enterprises to move forward. Machine learning makes work easier and simplifies the process, uses computer systems to simulate the processing of the human brain, and combines scientific and logical processes. Novel coronavirus pneumonia trends that will continue in 2021 this year include the use of big data in e-commerce, and the use of facial recognition and temperature measurement tools to help companies prevent and control new crown pneumonia.

    2. 5G: the fifth generation wireless communication technology and standard will certainly affect the business world, because it will improve the digitization of industrial processes such as mining and agriculture with higher efficiency, so as to widely develop Internet of things solutions, better control crops, avoid pests or calculate the use of fertilizer. In the mining industry, it will develop autonomous driving and new sensors to reduce risks at the work site and improve production efficiency. By effectively using energy and water resources and reducing carbon dioxide emissions, 5g will also make urban development more sustainable. Although the implementation of 5g is gradual, 2021 will be a year of 5g: the network is faster than 4G, the number of connected devices will increase 100 times, and Internet calls, video, images, audio, application and tool downloads will benefit directly.

    3. Advanced analysis of data: using data in the right way can achieve higher efficiency. Let's focus on tackling important processes, automating processes, reducing costs and making correct decisions. Analysis is the key to realize business digitization. In the period of pandemic, due to the need for remote work, the role of data analysis is becoming more and more prominent. Useful data obtained through clients or users is growing, as are the tools for collecting, storing and processing this data. Companies can make decisions or change direction through real-time and online data. Data is everything today. Enterprises that do not invest in advanced data analysis will die out.

    4. Remote solutions: due to the pandemic, telecommuting will flourish in 2020. From software packages that allow working in the cloud to solutions for network security, there are hundreds of solutions that allow working remotely. There are also tools to allow communication with the team. A time-saving solution is digital signature. It has become a solution to complete transactions or sign documents remotely. In addition to encrypting documents, it can also sign any electronic transactions. Using digital signature can also simplify the internal process of the company.

    5. Internet of things: the Internet of things not only realizes the connection between objects and the Internet, but also arranges specific events according to tasks indicated remotely. Experts pointed out that in 2021, the Internet of things will give full play to its potential to connect devices at home. For example, by giving orders to smart phones or electronic device assistants through Siri or Alexa, you can turn on or off household appliances, keys or lighting devices. The Internet of things will also flourish among large companies to help promote security.

    6. Application multicloud: multicloud means using multiple public clouds. If a company tries to select specific services from each public cloud to avoid relying on a single public cloud provider, it can choose multicloud. Workers and customers are becoming more and more sensitive to using a single software solution that cannot meet their future needs and may suddenly fail in some activities. The research points out that since 2019, the multi cloud strategy has become the general strategy of 70% of companies. Evaluating and using a multi cloud environment can help determine who can provide the most efficiency and support in each case.

    7. Maximization of e-commerce: e-commerce is one of the stars in 2020, breaking many people's prejudice against online purchase. Network security has become the key to most successful experiences. It is expected that by 2021, many people will continue to buy through the Internet, which means that network security and after-sales service will be strengthened. In addition, the retail industry has also begun to unify, using e-commerce and key warehouses to improve distribution and distribution speed.

    8. Blockchain: on October 15, the US government reported a new national security strategy, which will use blockchain technology or distributed ledger technology to develop new projects. At the same time, China has been promoting the project of officially adopting the digital currency of the central bank, and it will become the first country in the world to have a digital currency. PwC pointed out in the relevant report released last month that blockchain technology is expected to increase the world GDP by US $1.76 trillion in 2030 and create value for different sectors such as health, finance, logistics, distribution or public sector.

    9. Virtual reality and augmented reality: in short, virtual reality immerses individuals in the environment, while augmented reality expands the user's environment. As augmented reality becomes mainstream, it is expected that more companies will use it in their marketing strategies to establish stronger and more lasting connections. As the world adapts to the post pandemic limitations, augmented reality can play an important role in our daily interactions.

    10. Progress in network security: This is one of the most relevant projects with the company to help enterprises and the world overcome multiple obstacles caused by the epidemic and telecommuting in 2020. In 2021, it will continue to develop as an important trend, because many companies are working in hybrid mode or completely remote mode, which will test the security of computer information, keys and confidential documents. So what will be the trend of network security in 2021? Use AI to identify new attack threats; Use blockchain technology to ensure the safe storage of data; Improve remote authentication solutions to keep track of who and when has access to company information.
