In response to the Chinese system cell phones, routers, sweeping robots back to China’s information problems, Taiwan Ki-Pin Party suggested on the 9th, NCC (National Communication Communications Commission of the Republic of China) should encourage the industry to apply for information security certification, through the certification of the public to buy products with peace of mind, and proposed clean information security needs to be marked certification, anti-blocking wash origin, the government should pay attention to China may receive Taiwan-related data, information through a third place, strengthen Procurement law, I hope the government to take the lead in gatekeeping.
SAM, an IoT engineer, mentioned that he received a complaint from a customer that the firewall at Home suddenly transmitted a very large amount of information within a short period of Time when using the floor sweeper robot. servers in Hong Kong, Singapore and Japan, jumping back to the servers in China.
He said, as long as the information is dropped to China, “cell phones and floor robots can become spies for the Chinese Communist Party to see your home.
SAM pointed out that the sweeping robot, a product produced by a company that raised funds on the fundraising platform FlyingV, requires twice as many access rights before use than sweepers of the same price in Europe and the United States.
Weng Jiaji, executive director of the Software Freedom Association, said that cell phones, routers, sweeping robots back to China, the key in the control of the hardware software, firmware systems, so that “the product does what it did not say to do”, which involves the awareness of information security. For example, the current interval speed camera App that has raised suspicion among Chinese investors, will it expropriate other information besides the speed calculation? The back-end system is made by who? How much Chinese capital is involved in the production of back-end system manufacturers themselves?
Weng Jiaji pointed out that the information security certification process is very important, the information security certification process itself must also be transparent enough, I hope that government units procurement, leasing, manufacturers to build the system must be open source code, so that the system is open and transparent for public inspection. At present, Estonia and Italy procurement law has been clearly defined, the government units to purchase or build the system used by government units, must be the existing free and open source software solutions as the first option.
The company’s main goal is to provide the best possible service to its customers. The robot is equipped with a lens to avoid hitting the wall and draw a map of the room. As the operation of the floor sweeper robot needs to operate the app through the cell phone and open permissions, so the phone call records, photos, videos, cell phone ID and purchase time, camera functions, etc. may be transmitted back to China; the transmitted information is sealed package, there is no way to know what content is transmitted.
The government needs to remind all the people that their secrets are valuable information that should be kept, and the government should legislate to protect the people.
