China launches annual cybersecurity publicity campaign

The 2020 China cybersecurity week, a campaign to promote public awareness of cybersecurity, was launched on Monday nationwide.

Addressing a forum on cybersecurity in Zhengzhou, central China's Henan Province, on Monday, a key event of the campaign, Zhuang Rongwen, director of the Cyberspace Administration of China, stressed the importance of establishing a correct view of cybersecurity and promoting the construction of cybersecurity protection systems and capacity in the face of the increasingly serious and complex situation.

The campaign, scheduled to run until Sept. 20, will also feature events including a digital exhibition and a cybersecurity contest.

China initiated the first cybersecurity week in 2014.
