Abstract: Sovereign digital currencies are currently one of the focal points of global attention. China's sovereign digital currency began trial operations in the first half of this year, but its security risks, especially those related to information security and asset security, affect people's trust in and acceptance and use of it. Therefore, it is necessary to explore how to incorporate the security risks of sovereign digital currencies into the scope of regulation from a legal perspective. Sovereign digital currencies are both an integration of technical systems and a form of existence of assets. Its operational security risks can be divided into two categories i.e. technical security risks and social security risks. Technical security risks should not only be addressed by technical means, but also considered to be regulated by legal means. Constructively, the objectives, subjects and objects, contents and legal categories of legislative regulation are proposed; the requirements of law enforcement and judicial regulation are also proposed, which will hopefully have a positive impact on the promotion of China's sovereign digital currency.

Key words: sovereign digital currency, central bank digital currency, currency security, information security, legal regulations

摘要: 当前主权数字货币是全球关注的焦点事件之一.我国主权数字货币今年上半年开始试运行,但是其安全风险尤其是信息安全、资产安全风险影响人们对其信任、接受和使用.因此需要从法律角度探讨如何将主权数字货币安全风险纳入规制的范围.主权数字货币既是技术系统的集成,也是资产的存在形式.其运行安全风险可以分为2类,即技术安全风险和社会安全风险.技术安全风险不但要以技术方式解决,更要考虑以法律方式加以规制.建设性地提出了立法规制的目标、主体和对象、内容和法律类别;同时也提出执法和司法规制的要求,希望对推进我国主权数字货币工作有积极的意义.
