With more than 600 million internet users and a growing number of people using mobile payment systems, cyber security in China plays an important role. In 2013, the costs of criminal cyber activities in China were estimated at 37 billion U.S. dollars.

Therefore in recent years, China’s leadership has acknowledged the importance of cyber security and declared cyber security as a key priority. Nevertheless, it remains as a critical issue concerning many European SMEs doing business in China.

In this context, the EU SME Centre will host a webinar to explain primary cyber security challenges in China and provide solutions for your businesses.

After attending the webinar you will learn:

  • Major cyber security challenges faced by European SMEs doing business in China;
  • Recent development in China’s digital infrastructure;
  • Ways to protect your business from potential cyber risks.
