BEIJING (Reuters) – China’s state planner pledged to crack down on black and grey industries that illegally obtain, sell or provide data, according to regulations published on Wednesday intended to improve data circulation security governance.
As part of efforts to prevent data misuse, the authorities urged strengthening data security risk monitoring in key industries and fields, preventing systemic and large-scale data security risks so as to maintain national security and social stability.
