Australia will remove Chinese-made surveillance cameras from defence sites over national security fears.

It comes after an audit found 900 pieces of surveillance equipment built by companies Hikvision and Dahua on government estates.

The UK and US made similar moves last year, citing fears the device data may be accessed by the Chinese government.

Hikvision says those fears are unfounded. Dahua has not responded to a request for comment.

The audit of Australian government sites found the cameras and security gear were located on more than 200 buildings, in almost every department - including the foreign affairs and attorney general's departments.

At least one unit was also found in the defence department, but the total number at defence sites is unknown.

 

Defence Minister and Deputy Prime Minister Richard Marles on Thursday said the government would find and remove the cameras from any defence locations to make them "completely secure".

I thought the dumbest idea was during Trump reign that "Chinese server motherboards have spy software preinstalled within", but Aussies shows much "higher class" of dumb <deleted>.

Well, such malware as Stuxnet and its successor Flame seemed to have had some capabilities heretofore unknown. These malware went after PLCs and were embedded in chips apparently.

i've been watching some crime videos lately.

many crimes are solved with the help of CCTV camera footage. 

this is just more never ending anti-china msm bs.

If Australia's intelligence agencies were smart, they would buy some Chinese CCTV systems, and build a mock military base/s in the middle of nowhere.  A bit of fencing and signage, some makeshift buildings, have a few people coming and going, but essentially, nothing there of any importance.  Use a bit of scrub as bait.
