Introduction to the NDSMR
The new Network Data Security Management Regulations (NDSMR), effective January 2025, aim to clarify, refine, and supplement the data protection framework established by the Cyber Security Law (CSL), the Data Security Law (DSL), and the Personal Information Protection Law (PIPL). These detailed guidelines reduce the burden on companies to ensure IT compliance while enhancing legal enforceability.

Time To Act
Most foreign companies are aware of the importance of network security in China. However, due to the complexity of the laws and regulations related to cybersecurity and data protection, many are unsure how to practically implement the NDSMR requirements.
CHINABRAND, together with cybersecurity experts, supports German and European companies with critical tasks, including:
- Analyzing requirements for IT compliance, network security, data transmission, and data protection
- Reviewing clients' existing IT infrastructures in China to ensure compliance with data security regulations
- Selecting measures and implementing tools to meet the new requirements
- Designing and conducting compliance training for Chinese and Asian subsidiaries
- Implementing compliance management systems
"Like for any state, Chinese regulation is complex and need guidance to ensure compliance. CHINABRAND, combining technical, legal and language skills, is greatly helping us in our MLPS 2.0 compliance journey. Without their support it would have been very difficult to deal with this certification."
