White House denies that investigation of Huawei's report was false

According to The Hill, a foreign media report, Reuters reported that the White House’s secret investigation into whether Huawei was engaged in espionage poses a security threat to the United States, but no evidence has been found. A White House spokesperson denied the report today, saying that Huawei had not been investigated.

Reuters quoted two sources as saying that an 18-month-long secret investigation document revealed that there were security holes in Huawei's telecommunications equipment manufacturers. Hackers could exploit this vulnerability to infiltrate the computer system, but the document did not show any relevant information about Huawei in the United States. Espionage evidence.

However, White House spokeswoman Caitlin Hayden said today that officials did not investigate communications equipment manufacturers.

Hayden said in an e-mail, "The White House has never secretly investigated any communications equipment suppliers, Reuters reported not true. In October last year, Huawei was prevented from participating in the construction of the US public wireless emergency network due to the U.S. government security risks."

Reuters reported that the investigation report showed that it was unable to distinguish whether the security risks in Huawei equipment were intentional. It was alleged that the Intelligence Bureau and related departments had assisted in the investigation of nearly 1,000 communications distributors and probed whether they had any suspicious activities with Huawei.

Before Reuters reported, the US House Intelligence Committee just claimed that Huawei and ZTE had security risks. A year-long investigation report by the US House Intelligence Committee showed that Huawei and ZTE have caused national security risks to the United States, and suggested that US companies do not use Huawei's ZTE equipment.

According to informed sources, Reuters stated that "some government officials really want to find" evidence of Huawei's spying in the United States.

Huawei U.S. spokesman William Plummer said in a statement that although it is rare to see such an investigation report, there is no evidence that Huawei is engaged in spying or non-commercial activities. This is normal.

However, Plummer added that each communication equipment manufacturer’s equipment has security risks that may be exploited by hackers, and Huawei is “very welcome” to investigate the equipment.

Plummer said, “The quality and integrity of Huawei's solution have been recognized by more than 500 merchants in 150 markets around the world. Therefore, Huawei welcomes the re-survey of Huawei’s equipment to test this vulnerability. Whether or not the security breach really exists. If it does exist, we will try our best to repair it. If it does not exist, it will be good for Huawei to clarify the facts."
