After China’s proposal for a ‘Global Data Security Initiative’ in September 2020, China has stepped up its cyber-related legislation in 2021 with an unprecedented speed. This is especially reflected through the promulgation of two data related superordinate laws that will work together with the Cybersecurity Law: one is the Data Security Law (DSL), which came into effect since 1st September 2021, and the other being the Personal Information Protection Law (PIPL), to be enacted on 1st November 2021.

The two laws, along with other recently promulgated regulations falling under the Cybersecurity Law, are to bring heavy impact to the business community in China. Foreign companies that previously had a global approach to data protection and compliance are pressed to revise their regional cybersecurity compliance and re-organize its China strategy vis-à-vis the new regulations, as the new laws and regulations might pose restrictions, additional compliance burdens, or risks, to their current cybersecurity practices.

The European Chamber is delighted to invite our members to our annual Cybersecurity Conference, where we invite the right experts, at the right time, to decipher the increasingly complicated cybersecurity management framework in China to better prepare our audience to what is coming or is present.
