After the exposure of the U.S. "Prism" program, it raised serious concerns about China's information security, highlighting the significant risks associated with government and enterprise data protection. However, many domestic companies still hold misconceptions regarding the use of CAD/CAM industrial design software. Industry experts have pointed out these misunderstandings and provided guidance on how to address them effectively.
**Misconception 1: Foreign Software is Always Better? Domestic Solutions Can Be More Secure!**
According to media reports, tech giants like Cisco, IBM, Google, Qualcomm, Intel, Apple, Oracle, and Microsoft were involved in the “Prism†surveillance program. These global IT leaders dominate key sectors such as postal services, finance, railways, civil aviation, healthcare, and defense. Despite their denials, there has been growing concern over the over-reliance on foreign brands in China.
Many Chinese manufacturing enterprises, especially those using 3D CAD software for critical design work, still depend heavily on foreign solutions due to early market entry and limited alternatives. However, recent surveys show that domestic 2D and 3D CAD software can now meet the needs of the machinery industry in terms of functionality and support.
There have also been reports of foreign 3D CAD software having security vulnerabilities, such as backdoor leaks that could threaten national security. In response, some state agencies have advised military enterprises to stop using certain foreign software to prevent data breaches. The Ministry of Industry and Information Technology has also compiled a list of recommended domestic 3D CAD software for military use.
Song Xiaogang from the China Machinery Industry Federation emphasized that software copyright is crucial for the integration of industrial and information technologies. With increasing security incidents involving foreign software, the strategic importance of domestic solutions has become more evident.
**Myth 2: Pirated Software Saves Costs? Genuine Software Offers Real Value!**
Some companies opt for pirated or cracked versions of CAD/CAM software to cut costs. However, this practice not only destabilizes IT systems but also poses major security risks. Pirated software often contains hidden malware that can steal sensitive company data.
Moreover, using unlicensed software means losing access to technical support, updates, and service guarantees—key factors that affect system stability and long-term productivity. Chen Wei from the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology noted that genuine software provides real value by meeting user needs and ensuring information security.
With growing awareness and acceptance of domestic software, the government has encouraged prioritizing local solutions to support the development of the domestic software industry.
**Ensuring National Security Requires Homegrown Industrial Software**
Although China’s CAD software still lags behind developed countries, it has made significant progress in recent years. Many domestic solutions offer cost-effective 2D and 3D CAD/CAM tools tailored to the needs of Chinese enterprises.
For instance, many companies do not require complex 3D design systems, and simpler, more affordable options are available. Enterprises can choose software based on their specific needs, avoiding unnecessary high costs.
Zhongwang Software, a leading Chinese CAD provider, has successfully exported its products to over 80 countries. With its own core technology, Zhongwang CAD+ offers integrated design and manufacturing solutions. It acquired U.S. 3D software VX and became the only globally recognized vendor with independent intellectual property rights in 3D CAD/CAM.
The company is also the preferred choice for military enterprises, offering secure and cost-effective solutions. Major global manufacturers and Fortune 500 companies have recognized its value.
Before the "Prism" incident, experts had already called for stronger information security measures. Academician Ni Guangnan highlighted the need for a security review mechanism for critical IT products, learning from international experiences.
To safeguard national information security and drive industrial transformation, relying on foreign CAD software is not a sustainable solution. China must develop its own industrial CAD/CAM software, ensuring better security and performance for domestic users. Only through independent innovation can China truly protect its digital infrastructure.
