The firm serves a wide range of industries including government, finance, transportation, manufacturing, and telecommunications. Its business model focuses on providing these specialized security solutions to protect personal information and business secrets. The company has received multiple rounds of funding from investors such as Antiy Labs, CASH Capital, Tencent Investment, and Everest VC.
