Core Viewpoint - The implementation of the "National Cybersecurity Incident Reporting Management Measures" marks a new phase in the systematic and standardized governance of cybersecurity in China, effective from November 1, 2025 [1][2]. Group 1: Policy Framework - The new policy establishes a clear reporting timeline and responsibilities for different entities and levels of cybersecurity incidents, requiring network operators to report incidents to relevant authorities within one hour, and within half an hour for major incidents [1][2]. - The reporting responsibility is expanded to include service providers, who must report any security incidents they detect while providing services to network operators [1][2]. Group 2: Background and Necessity - The rapid digitalization in China has increased the transmission and destructive potential of cybersecurity risks, necessitating a robust reporting system to address the challenges posed by various security incidents [2]. - The policy aims to fill the gaps in the previous inconsistent reporting standards and delayed responses, establishing a mandatory reporting system to facilitate quick incident management and minimize potential damages [2]. Group 3: Implementation Challenges - Companies need to reassess their cybersecurity emergency response systems and enhance their monitoring and reporting capabilities to comply with the new regulations [3]. - Regulatory bodies must develop efficient incident reception and processing mechanisms, improving inter-departmental collaboration and risk analysis capabilities [3]. - There are concerns regarding the ability of small and medium-sized enterprises to meet the technical and financial requirements for effective monitoring and reporting [3]. Group 4: Future Outlook - The introduction of the policy is seen as a starting point for enhancing governance capabilities rather than a final solution, emphasizing the need for continuous improvement and collaboration among regulatory bodies, enterprises, and the public [4].
