China vows stricter AI safeguards as OpenClaw sparks security fears
Tackling challenges will require coordinated action from providers, end users and regulators, official says
On Monday, Liu Liehong, head of the National Data Administration, said security and compliance had become core challenges as AI spread across industry and daily life.
“To this end, we are establishing a robust data property rights framework that clearly defines rights and responsibilities for data supply, circulation and usage,” Liu said.
“At the same time, we are advancing an integrated security governance solution that unifies data, technology and network safeguards, delivering the strong security foundation needed to scale AI applications responsibly.”
Security management for AI agents such as OpenClaw, Liu said, would follow the principles of “least privilege, proactive defence and continuous auditing”.
He noted that addressing these challenges would require coordinated action from AI providers, end users and regulators.
