Asian Cyber Security Standards

The scientific considerations outlined in this article address the threat to the cyber security quality system arising from unclear security standards implemented by China. Over the past few years, the Chinese government has imposed almost 300 new national cyber security standards. These norms cover a variety of information and communication technology (ICT) services as well as products, including software, routers, switches and firewalls. This standardization increases the threat to the cybersecurity quality system, and the more the US places pressure on the western world for Chinese companies investing outside China and on western firms trading in China, the more difficult the situation becomes. The aim of this assessment is to identify these threats, which are also difficulties encountered by Western companies trying to develop their operations in China in order to minimize them. The study was compiled as an analysis of Chinese cybersecurity standardization policy documents and their confrontation with the practice of foreign businesses and as an analysis of international reports and standardization documents on cybersecurity. The theoretical investigative methods used in this paper are: synthesis, analysis, abstraction and generalization.
