Abstract
Although cybersecurity legislation has made some progress since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, there is still a large gap between the law and development of cybersecurity and informatization and the requirements of the public. In addition, many problems exist in the fields of legislation, enforcement, administration, and legality. Some people, both at home and abroad, question China's efforts in the legislation of cybersecurity. Based on a study of current cybersecurity law, we suggest that it is necessary to speed up cybersecurity legislation and improve the legal system, particularly in order to enact cybersecurity law, e-commercial law, administrative law for cyber information service, personal information protection law, e-government law, information and telecommunication network law, and administrative law for cyber society, supported by matched regulations and by laws. In this way, a perfected legal system for cybersecurity will be achieved.
