Tramford International Ltd. changed its business focus in mid-2000 with the acquisition of BHL Networks Technology Co. Ltd. (BHLNet), which owns a 76% interest in Beijing BHL Networks Technology Co. Ltd. (BBHL), a company incorporated under the laws of China.

BBHL specializes in network technology. With network security and information security technology and support software as its main business, the company has established its brand image with specialized technology, system products and comprehensive service.

The principal technology of the company includes: accreditation and encryption, coding, information protection and testing, network security technical standard and related technology as well as products and solutions in network information processing. The company positioned itself as a provider of system integration services, network security and network management solutions after its acquisition of BHLNet.

In order to pioneer in its key markets, the company switched its business focus to self-developed security software in 2001 and established a research and development team formed by experienced research staff recruited from universities and competitors.

This change proved successful, in particular in the development of the company's Intranet/Internet Physical Separation Security Solution (IPSSS), which was generally recognized and certified by the relevant government agencies and accounted for the majority of 2002 sales. In 2003, based on the technology backbone of IPSSS, the company developed the BHL Information Security Gate System (Security Gate). Security Gate enhances the safe exchange of information between two networks which are completely physically separated.
