Honor Device Co., Ltd. and several other enterprises have received the highest-level two-star (regulatory-level) certificates for "Personal Information Protection Compliance Audit Self-audit Capability Evaluation" during the 2025 National Cybersecurity Awareness Week.

The Data Security Standards Foundation Support Plan (DSEP), initiated by the China Electronics Standardization Institute, officially released the first batch of companies that passed the evaluation. Honor became the first company in the smart terminal industry to achieve this recognition.

In July this year, DSEP launched the "Personal Information Protection Compliance Audit Self-audit Capability Evaluation" initiative, conducting capability assessments across organizational systems, compliance audit implementation, compliance audit support, and work value presentation.

The two-star (regulatory-level) certificate indicates that enterprises possess sufficient personal information protection compliance audit capabilities. Through establishing compliance audit management systems and developing auditor competencies, companies can implement personal information protection compliance audits independently, systematically, standardized, and repeatably. They can also continuously optimize and coordinate internal and external audit-related activities while conducting orderly personal information protection compliance audit work within the organization.

Ke Xiaoyu, Honor's director of personal information protection, commented: "Honor becoming the first company in the smart terminal industry to pass the highest-level evaluation reflects the high recognition of Honor's personal information protection compliance audit capabilities by independent professional institutions. Moving forward, Honor will continue to monitor industry developments and regulatory requirements, continuously improve our personal information protection system, and create safer and more trustworthy products and services for consumers."
