Re: Someone does have the special knowledge

They produce great reports, every year, and none of them have said that they are more or less secure than any of the competition's gear and this one basically says:

Because their coding practice is shoddy and inconsistant they are unable to accuratley assess the risk.

They also state that Huawei have committed to spending $2bn to fix it over the next five years and that if their processes are fixed, there is every chance they can re evaluate their position.

On a Pure cost benefit analysis the only way forward is to use the Huawei gear and hope their coding process improves, backed up by the HCSEC's continued assessment and ongoing processes within Huawei.
