Belgium says no spying software in Huawei kit
- Tuesday | 16th April, 2019
BRUSSELS (Reuters) – Belgium’s center for cybersecurity has found no evidence that telecoms equipment supplied by Huawei Technology could be used for spying. Britain publicly chastised Huawei for failing to fix long-standing security flaws in its mobile network equipment and revealed new “significant technical issues”. Germany last month set tougher criteria for vendors supplying telecoms network equipment, but stopped short of singling out Huawei, instead saying the same rules should apply to all vendors. The agency, which reports to the Belgian prime minister, had been tasked with analyzing the possible threat posed by Huawei, which supplies equipment to Belgian mobile operators Proximus, Orange Belgium and Telenet. “Until now we have not found technical indications that point in the direction of a spying threat,” a spokesman for the agency said on Monday.
