Xinhua Silk Road: Yinchuan supports China's wine industry in going global
BEIJING, June 14, 2025 /CNW/ -- The Fifth China (Ningxia) International Wine Culture and Tourism Expo, alongside the 32nd Concours Mondial de Bruxelles, was held in Yinchuan, capital of northwest China's Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region, from June 9 to 12, contributing to the global dialogue of wine industries worldwide.
In recent years, Yinchuan has been committed to building a "world capital of wine." A series of supportive policies have been rolled out to boost investment, introduce advanced technologies, and promote international cooperation.
Yinchuan now boasts the most concentrated wine grape production cluster in China, with a total of 273,000 mu (about 18,200 hectares) of vineyards, gathering155 wineries and grape-growing enterprises.
In addition, Yinchuan's annual wine output reached 75 million bottles in 2024, accounting for approximately 26.8 percent of the total output of domestically produced estate wines. 19 types of local wine have been selected as national gifts and exported to more than 40 countries and regions.
The eastern foothills of the Helan Mountains in Ningxia used to be barren and sandy years ago. In order to restore the ecosystem, Yinchuan has pursued an integrated approach in the protection and improvement of mountains, rivers, forests, farmland, lakes, grasslands, and deserts.
Meanwhile, guided by the coordinated development of "ecology + industry" , the city has advanced ecological restoration in the eastern foothills of Helan Mountains while promoting the integrated growth of the wine industry, cultural tourism, and ecological conservation. These efforts have fostered high-quality development that balances resource utilization with ecological governance, and aligns economic growth with environmental protection.
Furthermore, at the wineries along the eastern foothills of Helan Mountains, every step is carefully monitored by winery staff to ensure premium quality of grapes, from science-based planting to cutting-edge winemaking technologies.
As the birthplace and hub of Ningxia's wine industry, Yinchuan is stepping up efforts to build itself into a "world capital of wine" with high standards. The city is now home to 37 classified wineries and 53 enterprises with certified geographical indications, and its wine industry recorded a total output value of 36 billion yuan (about 5.02 billion U.S. dollars) in 2024.

AV-Comparatives Validates Real-World Threat Detection in 2025 EDR XDR MDR Certification Testing
INNSBRUCK, Austria, June 15, 2025 /CNW/ -- "As cyberattacks evolve, detection can't be a checkbox. Our 2025 EDR/XDR Certification helps CISOs assess how effectively their tools uncover stealthy, real-world threats." - Andreas Clementi, ceo and founder, AV-Comparatives This independent evaluation tested enterprise cybersecurity solutions under advanced threat scenarios. The goal: to assess their ability to detect and report real-world attacks with precision and visibility. Unlike, e.g. the EPR Test, which focuses on prevention, the EDR test simulates complex attack scenarios to assess how well a product detects and logs each stage of an intrusion, providing insights into its visibility, telemetry quality, and threat detection precision. Threat visibility based on threat hunting capabilities is also considered. AV-Comparatives is pleased to announce that five out of seven solutions have achieved certification so far under our transparent and rigorous methodology. Certified Products – EDR, XDR and MDR Solutions The following products earned certification in the 2025 test round CrowdStrike Falcon Pro ESET PROTECT Enterprise Cloud G DATA 365 MXDR (MDR solution) Kaspersky Next EDR Expert (in the pilot test) Palo Alto Networks Cortex XDR Pro One Methodology for EDR, XDR and MDR While initially designed to evaluate EDR and XDR capabilities, the test can equally be applied to MDR (Managed Detection and Response) offerings. In this round, G DATA successfully participated with their MDR solution, demonstrating that even managed offerings can be assessed under realistic, controlled attack conditions. A Focus on Real-World Visibility This evaluation simulates Advanced Persistent Threat (APT) attacks, using known Tactics, Techniques, and Procedures (TTPs) from frameworks such as MITRE ATT&CK. All products were tested in monitoring mode only, meaning prevention features were disabled. The goal: to measure how well threats are detected and reported, not blocked. Highlights of the methodology: Execution of complex attack chains Validation of detections via alerts in the management console or through manual threat hunting in telemetry Transparent certification model: only products meeting the detection threshold are certified and publicly listed Methodological Improvements and the Road Ahead The 2025 test incorporated feedback from independent analysts, resulting in greater transparency, enhanced scoring, and deeper telemetry validation. Further enhancements are planned for the 2026 certification test. The EDR Detection Validation Test is open to EPP, EDR, XDR, and MDR vendors seeking independent validation of their detection capabilities. Certification offers vendors industry recognition and deep technical insight into their solution's real-world performance. Contact us to participate in the next test cycle.
