Huawei issues could pose UK security risks, say authorities

Government report casts doubt over Chinese firm's future involvement in telecoms

The government-led committee set up to vet products made by the controversial Chinese firm Huawei has warned it has found new significant issues that could pose a risk to the British telecommunications industry.

The Huawei oversight board, which is chaired by the head of GCHQ's National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC), said it had found further "significant technical issues in Huawei's engineering processes leading to new risks in the UK telecommunications networks".
