State Grid Hangzhou Power Supply Unveils AI-Powered Service Team

Leave a comment

Virtual team will ensure stable power supply for the upcoming 19th Asian Games in Hangzhou

HANGZHOU, China, June 16, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — On June 15 at 10:27 AM, the intelligent monitor in the distribution network control hall at the power supply service command center of State Grid Hangzhou Power Supply Company ( “SGHPSC”) issued a power outage alert. The alert signaled that the Gudang Substation 10 kV Zhaori 9674 line switch had tripped. Swiftly responding to the situation, the emergency repair expert promptly identified the affected area, and directed the repair crew to the location. Within one minute, Mr. Cai, a resident in the affected area, received a text message from the company notifying him about the outage. Simultaneously, the automated distribution system isolated the fault, restoring power to surrounding areas within three minutes. Approximately 20 minutes later, the company’s emergency repair personnel arrived on-site. Notably, this was the first time where the power supplier utilized the virtual office platform, summoning digital workers to resolve a power outage. The virtual dispatcher, nicknamed Patch, granted permission for the crew to commence their work, ensuring swift resolution of the issue. Coinciding with these events, SGHPSC organized a mobilization meeting to mark the 100-day countdown to the Hangzhou Asian Games. During the meeting the company reaffirmed its commitment to do its part to assure that the classic event would take place without a hitch by ensuring a stable power supply.

In March 2022, SGHPSC set in motion a plan to implement a six-module virtual digital employee platform, including virtual dispatching, intelligent monitoring, intelligent emergency repair, virtual office, and intelligent customer service. Each module corresponds to one dedicated digital worker, among them Patch and the emergency repair expert. By seamlessly integrating these six “employees” into the power supply service command system, SGHPSC achieved a remarkable synergy between human expertise and digital capabilities.

In 2018, SGHPSC embarked on a transformative journey by incorporating AI technology into its power grid command service, embedding into the distribution network an innovative “power brain” consisting of a grid knowledge graph, a multi-round human-robot dialogue engine, and a business decision engine. The first of these digital employees, the virtual dispatcher Patch, emerged as a remarkable outcome of this technological integration. Since then, a series of new AI-based members modeled on Patch have joined the team, including an intelligent monitor, virtual commissioner, office assistant, intelligent customer service employee, and emergency repair expert.

“The virtual digital employee team has integrated data from 17 distinct production management systems while utilizing AI and robotic process automation to handle simple repetitive tasks, significantly enhancing our productivity,” explained Jiang Jian, head of SGHPSC’s power supply command center. “The six virtual employees worked together seamlessly to streamline 27 business applications across six key functions within the power supply service command center, achieving a task replacement rate of over 50%.”

In addition to automated filtering and analysis of alerts from power grid operations, the intelligent monitor, working hand-in-hand with Patch and the emergency repair expert, proactively issue abnormal notifications that trigger the incident response process. This reduces the time required for fault investigation and reporting from 5 minutes to 1 minute. Furthermore, the virtual office assistant efficiently manages 10 common application scenarios, including automated work order dispatch (customer service hotline: 95598), work order review assistance, and customer briefing generation, completing an average of 7 reports per day and showcasing its remarkable efficiency in handling these tasks.

As the Hangzhou Asian Games approach, the AI-powered service team is set to enhance its collaborative mechanism, optimizing it for real-time monitoring of distribution network equipment and swift deployment of on-site emergency repair services through the utilization of digital tools. This strategic approach ensures the team’s ability to provide a secure and stable power supply while delivering optimized and efficient power services throughout the event. With these measures in place, the AI-powered service team is fully prepared to meet the power demands and expectations of the Games, ensuring a seamless and successful event.

Quantinuum Brings Quantum-Computing-Hardened Encryption Keys to the Device Level for the First Time – Introducing Quantum Origin Onboard

Leave a comment

Critical software-based protection for a range of connected devices

LONDON and BROOMFIELD, Colo, June 14, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — Quantinuum, the world’s largest integrated quantum computing company, today announced the launch of Quantum Origin Onboard, an innovation in cryptographic key generation that provides quantum computing hardened cyber protection for a wide range of connected devices by maximizing the strength of keys generated within the devices themselves. 

The risk of cyberattacks compromising organizations continues to grow. As cybercriminals uncover new techniques to exploit connected systems and their data, even the cryptographic foundations of cybersecurity measures remain vulnerable to advanced threats. Cryptographic keys created using current typical methods deployed by organizations around the world are not provably unpredictable, leaving encrypted data and systems potentially at risk of devastating attacks. Quantinuum’s quantum-computing-hardened cryptographic key enhancement solution provably minimizes the risk that businesses generate and use vulnerable encryption keys to protect encrypted data.

“While quantum computing has the potential to render current encryption algorithms obsolete, posing a significant challenge to businesses and individuals alike, already today sophisticated attackers can take advantage of vulnerable encryption keys,” said Dr. Rajeeb Hazra, CEO of Quantinuum. “With our Quantum Origin Onboard and the overall Quantum Origin platform, organizations can fortify defenses across multiple endpoints and embrace the possibilities of a quantum-secure future. The next era of data security is here, and we are proud to be at the forefront as we collaborate with organizations worldwide.”

Strengthening encryption at the device level

Quantum Origin Onboard is the first and only commercially available enterprise software solution capable of delivering quantum-computing-hardened key enhancement. It can be installed directly onto devices and used to help deliver unparalleled foundational-level protection. Quantum Origin Onboard brings cutting-edge, enterprise-level security that integrates directly into connected devices without the need for additional hardware upgrades. This unique approach ensures that devices in any environment, online or offline, can generate quantum-computing-hardened keys to continually maximize the strength of encryption measures protecting devices.

Quantum Origin Onboard embeds a quantum seed, created by Quantinuum’s H-Series quantum computer, into devices. The seed is a string of provably unpredictable numbers, which enhance a device’s capability to generate strong and secure keys.

“Enterprises are recognizing they can build unprecedented resilience by adopting quantum-computing-hardened cryptographic keys,” said Duncan Jones, Head of Cybersecurity at Quantinuum. “This is a paradigm shift, and enterprises in critical industries are embracing the opportunity to minimize a risk to one of their attack surfaces, specifically device-level encryption on internet connected products that might be in the field for a decade.”

The growing security threat to embedded devices

The growing use of connected devices continues to underpin innovation across industries, from critical infrastructure to healthcare to transportation to energy. As adoption has risen, cybercriminals have increasingly targeted vulnerable interconnected devices, causing mass disruption. One of the most infamous examples of the power of IoT-based attacks is the Mirai malware that infected IP cameras and basic home routers, creating a botnet that compromised a leading Domain Name Systems provider, leaving many high-profile websites inaccessible.

Quantum Origin Onboard embeds an industry-leading security capability into connected devices, to strengthen device security against advanced cyber-attacks, by minimizing an exploitable cyber vulnerability. As the only software solution of its kind, it simplifies deployment and provides uninterrupted key generation for connected devices and the data they manage.

ZTE distinguished itself from the competition by utilizing ZTE XGS-PON for network expansion and implementing the Filipino Localization Improvement Program (FLIP). FLIP focuses on enhancing the skills of local engineers and driving localization efforts, demonstrating ZTE’s commitment to empowering the Filipino telecommunications industry.”

ZTE bagged the Technology Innovation of the Year – Philippines award for its partnership with Converge ICT Solutions Inc., the country’s fastest growing fiber internet provider.  ZTE introduced the first residential XGS-PON services in the Philippines through Converge, enabling an industry-first average speed of 8 Gbps. This brings a first-world country experience for the Converge’s clientele, catering to bandwidth-hungry applications, more users, and an increased number of devices. 

“ZTE Philippines will continue to be the country’s partner in bringing forth second-to-none technology innovations, remaining faithful to our commitment towards driving the digital economy,” said Zhang Chaohao, CMO of ZTE Philippines.  

Meanwhile, ZTE also claimed the HR Initiative of the Year – Philippines award for its FLIP program, a meticulously  planned talent management strategy aimed at recruiting, and nurturing digital talents in the industry. Additionally, ZTE has entered into a strategic cooperation Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with two of the Philippines’ premier universities, the University of Santo Tomas (UST) and the Polytechnic University of the Philippines, as part of an Industry-Academe Linkage Program (IALP). This collaboration strengthens industry-academe partnerships and fosters mutual growth.
