proprietary Firewall/VPN products, high-performance security gateway products
and cutting-edge DPI products. In 2010, by launching the complete UTM product
line, Huawei Symantec hopes to strengthen its leadership position in the
security market, besides bolstering its storage product portfolio by
launching proprietary high-to-low-end network storage products, challenging a

80% annual growth and become a key player in security and storage markets,
with annual sales in 2009 reaching US$300 million.

In China, product sales remain a rapid growth area, with major
breakthroughs in Telecom, Finance, Education, Energy, NSP, while high-end
products also achieve leading market share.

Russia and Asia Pacific. The increasing global sales network has signified
the completion of its initial global strategy deployment.

According to Huawei Symantec, security is neither a single-point
protection nor a passive response to security threats. Instead, security
should be a holistic and proactive factor helping customers achieve their
business values.

management needs. Therefore, Huawei Symantec hopes to meet the demands by
offering comprehensive solutions, i.e. a "Converged Storage" strategy. Huawei
Symantec converges storage, equipment, security, business and services to
provide cost-effective and energy-efficient storage solutions.

has updated its strategies in marketing, branding and R&D. Secospace and
Oceanspace are more than brand names as they reflect the Company's
understanding of market trends, customer demands, as well as security and
