SHANGHAI needs to improve information security in an increasingly digitized world by establishing a comprehensive online identification recognition and protection system, a lawmaker said yesterday during the annual session of the Shanghai People’s Congress.
“It will be much safer and convenient,” said Hu Chuanping, chief of the Third Research Institute of the Ministry of Public Security, which is responsible for online security.
Transacting business online, Hu said, is increasingly risky “so it is necessary and urgent to set up an e-ID system.”
The proposed system, which is much more stringent than the current name registration requirement on some websites, is being examined by experts, Hu said, adding that the technology necessary to make the system possible is in place.
Vice Mayor Zhou Bo, who was present yesterday to hear SPC deputies’ proposals, said Shanghai is in need of better information security management to facilitate the city’s plan to develop various “Internet Plus” industries. “The ‘Internet Plus’ strategy, or the combination of Internet with some traditional industries like manufacturing, finance, commerce or tourism, is key to the city’s growth in the next five years,” Zhou said.
