China Updates Trade Secret Rules to Cover Data and AI Leaks

China has updated its trade secret regulations to specifically address data and artificial intelligence in an effort to prevent information leaks. The new rules expand the legal framework protecting sensitive corporate information by explicitly including modern digital assets and AI-driven technologies. This move reflects growing concerns over intellectual property theft in the tech sector. Companies operating in China will need to review their data security measures to ensure compliance with the stricter definitions of what constitutes a trade secret. The regulation aims to bolster the protection of proprietary information in a digital age.
