“China Restricts Government Officials from Using iPhones at Work Amid Data Security Concerns”
China has issued orders to central government agencies instructing officials not to use Apple’s iPhones and other foreign-branded devices for work purposes or bring them into the office. This move comes as China intensifies its focus on data security and compliance requirements for companies.
In a bid to address growing concerns over data security, China has taken steps to restrict government officials from using Apple’s iPhones and foreign-branded devices for work-related tasks or allowing them into government offices. The decision was communicated by superiors to their staff in recent weeks, though the extent of the distribution of these orders remains unclear.
While the Wall Street Journal initially reported on this development, it did not specify other smartphone manufacturers apart from Apple. China’s State Council Information Office has not provided an immediate response to media inquiries, and Apple has yet to comment on the matter in response to a Reuters’ request.
China has exhibited a heightened focus on data security in recent years, introducing new legislation and compliance requirements for both domestic and foreign companies operating within its borders. This move is part of the country’s broader efforts to safeguard sensitive data and critical infrastructure.
Back in May, China called upon significant state-owned enterprises (SOEs) to play a pivotal role in achieving self-reliance in technology. This initiative underscores the country’s determination to reduce dependence on foreign technology and enhance its capabilities amid ongoing tensions with the United States.
Sino-U.S. tensions have been elevated due to various factors, including Washington’s collaboration with allies to limit China’s access to essential equipment necessary for maintaining the competitiveness of its semiconductor industry. In response, Beijing has imposed restrictions on shipments from prominent U.S. companies, including aerospace manufacturer Boeing and chip producer Micron Technology.
The latest move to prohibit government officials from using foreign-branded smartphones reflects China’s ongoing efforts to strengthen data protection measures, particularly within the government sector, and reduce potential security risks associated with the use of foreign technology.
