Reply to comment by merien_nl in UK bans Chinese cameras from government buildings by Alvin_Chen

Oh no the cameras are. Hikvision and Dahua have both been found with back doors and massive security holes.

That's why they have been banned in government buildings and certain buisnesses in the US. That's what NDAA compliant means. Not one of those companies.

Problem is those two companies make many of the SOC's used by other companies. Or many of the cheap cameras are just rebadged OEMs of those companies.

Which part the security breaches, the NDAA law or the complete ban of new products in US. Or the FCC declaring it a national security risk?
