This book offers the first benchmarking study of China´s response to the problems of security in cyber space. There are several useful descriptive books on cyber security policy in China published between 2010 and 2016. As a result, we know quite well the system for managing cyber security in China, and the history of policy responses. What we don´t know so well, and where this book is useful, is how capable China has become in this domain relative to the rest of the world. This book is a health check, a report card, on China´s cyber security system in the face of escalating threats from criminal gangs and hostile states. The book also offers an assessment of the effectiveness of China´s efforts. It lays out the major gaps and shortcomings in China´s cyber security policy. It is the first book to base itself around an assessment of China´s cyber industrial complex, concluding that China does not yet have one. As Xi Jinping said in July 2016, the country´s core technologies are dominated by foreigners.
