我国《数据安全法》规定，国家建立数据分类分级保护制度，根据数据在经济社会发展中的重要程度，以及一旦遭到篡改、破坏、泄露或者非法获取、非法利用，对国家安全、公共利益或者个人、组织合法权益造成的危害程度，对数据实行分类分级保护。同时，有关部门应制定重要数据目录，加强对重要数据的保护。

随着相关工作持续推进，近期，数据安全与分类分级治理出现一系列新动向。例如，2024年3月19日，国务院办公厅印发《扎实推进高水平对外开放更大力度吸引和利用外资行动方案》，明确提出健全数据跨境流动规则，科学界定重要数据范围。3月20日，国家标准委批准发布推荐性国家标准GB/T 43697-2024 《数据安全技术 数据分类分级规则》以及作为规范性附录的《重要数据识别指南》，对企业的合规工作提出了进一步指引和要求。与此同时，部分行业、领域和地方在数据安全和分类分级治理方面，也出台了相关规定。

在这一背景下，中国欧盟商会网络安全子工作组有幸邀请国家工业信息安全发展研究中心产业促进所所长助理杨晓伟博士和世辉律师事务所合伙人王新锐，就近期数据安全与分类分级治理相关工作和动态进行分享。

China's Data Security Law stipulates that the state is to establish a categorical and hierarchical system for data protection and carry out categorized and graded data protections based on the importance of the data in economic and social development as well as the extent of harm to national security, the public interest, or the lawful rights and interests of citizens or organizations that would be caused once the data is altered, destroyed, leaked, or illegally obtained or used. The national data security coordination mechanism coordinates the relevant departments to determine a catalogue of important data and strengthen protections of the important data.

As related work continues to advance, a series of new trends in data security and classification and grading governance have recently emerged. For example, on March 19, 2024, the General Office of the State Council issued the Action Plan to Solidly Promote High-level Opening-up and Vigorously Attract and Utilize Foreign Investment, which explicitly proposed to improve the rules for cross-border data flow and to scientifically define the scope of important data. On March 20, the Standardization Administration of the P.R.C. (SAC) approved the issuance of the recommendatory national standards GB/T 43697-2024 Data security technology—Rules for data classification and grading and the Guidelines for the Identification of Important Data as a normative appendix, which put forward further guidelines and requirements for enterprises' compliance work. Meanwhile, some industries, sectors and local governments have also issued relevant regulations in terms of data security and classification and grading governance.

Against that backdrop, the European Chamber Cybersecurity Sub-working group is honoured to invite Dr. Yang Xiaowei, Assistant to the Head of Industry Promotion Institute, China Industrial Control Systems Cyber Emergency Response Team (CICS-CERT), and Mr. Wang Xinrui, Partner of Shihui Shihui Partners, to share their views on the recent developments related to data security and classification and grading governance.
