After using 1300 Chinese-made closed-circuit televisions (CCTVs) for 10 years, all were belatedly removed
Possible information leakage to specific servers in China
“Sold by deceiving companies,” currently replacing 100 with domestic ones, ‘[Economic Daily Kim Kwan-yong Reporter] The military recently removed all 1300 Chinese-made CCTVs installed in front-line units and other units, thinking they were domestically produced. This was because it was confirmed that the video recorded by the CCTVs could be connected to a specific server in China for potential leakage.’,
,
, ‘According to military authorities on the 13th, the Ministry of National Defense ordered a full inspection of CCTVs in all military units on the 11th. It was found that if there were CCTVs supplied by a particular company, they should be immediately removed. As a result, 1300 CCTVs with concerns of information leakage were disposed of.’,
,
, ‘The military is replacing the removed CCTVs with domestic ones. Currently, it has been reported that around 100 domestic CCTVs have been newly installed. However, due to budget issues, about 1200 of them have not been replaced yet.’,
,
, ‘The military unknowingly used parts of Chinese-made CCTVs from 2014 for a period of 10 years. While most were used for surveillance purposes of training grounds and unit fences, around 30 were reportedly used for forward observation in border operations.’,
,
, ‘Military authorities plan to claim damages from the CCTV manufacturer for deceiving the military and supplying the products.’,
