By the end of 2010, China’s internet user base had reached 457 million, with over 300 million accessing the internet via mobile devices, making China the country with the largest number of internet users and the fastest rate of growth worldwide. While the rapid development of the internet has significantly propelled economic and social development and greatly facilitated people’s work and daily life, it has also given rise to numerous cybersecurity challenges, posing new issues and challenges for government agencies in exercising social governance and safeguarding national security and interests.

With the advancement of technology and information, information security issues are becoming increasingly severe.
1. Information network-related illegal and criminal activities in the sphere of social life are on the rise;
2. The information network is severely “poisoning” the youth population;
3. Cyberpublic-opinion attacks targeting China’s political security are becoming increasingly frenzied;

Cyber information technology is constantly evolving, and its rapid, day-by-day changes mean that any notion of security is inherently relative. Consequently, national cybersecurity can only be an active form of security; only through continuous technological innovation can we secure the commanding heights of information technology. Any passive or reactive approach to cybersecurity will yield only “temporary security,” which in the long run will inevitably give way to “insecurity.” Furthermore, the asymmetry inherent in cybersecurity challenges means that any organization or individual can use the internet to confront the state. Cybercrime is low-cost, easy to carry out, highly flexible in its methods and tactics, and unconstrained by geography or national borders—indeed, a single individual can orchestrate a large-scale cybersecurity incident with far-reaching consequences. This asymmetry necessitates that national cybersecurity always adopt a proactive defensive posture, equipped with capabilities for timely threat warning, rapid response, and swift recovery. Lastly, in a certain sense, cybersecurity embodies control over online discourse and information governance; it has fundamentally overturned the traditional concept of territorial security and even extends beyond the scope of a nation’s sovereign jurisdiction. In a passive sense, it involves resisting all forms of sabotage and intrusion; in a proactive sense, it encompasses a country’s own capacity to disseminate information and exert influence.
