China cybersecurity body welcomes foreigh tech companies
2016-08-26 09:25:00| Telecompaper Headlines
(Telecompaper) China has allowed Microsoft, Cisco, Intel and IBM to join its Technical Committee 260 (TC260) , part of the government's cyberspace administration and in charge of defining cybersecurity standards, the Wall Street Journal reported. The companies will now be able to take an active part in drafting rules, rather than participating only as observers, sources familiar with the discussions said. Representatives from Microsoft and Cisco confirmed the companies are members. IBM and Intel were not immediately available for comment. Over the past few months, the committee's seven working groups, which focus on encryption, big data and other cybersecurity issues, have each met at least once. The committee that the foreign companies are a part of is at the front of the struggle over whether China will adopt standards that deviate from international norms.

The aim is to "respond the challenge of ensuring that online platforms do not offer opportunities for illegal online hate speech to spread virally," said the EC in a statement. Although many EU member states already seek to enforce many of the new code's policies in their national laws, the rules are the first attempt to codify how the IT companies themselves deal with the spread of illegal hate speech online.
