South Korea removes Chinese-made security cameras from military barracks
The Korea Herald reports that South Korea's military has removed over 1,300 Chinese-made CCTV cameras from frontline barracks following security concerns. A joint inspection with intelligence agencies in July revealed that the cameras, initially thought to be made in the Republic of Korea, were designed to transmit data through servers connected to China. Although no information leak was reported, the military is replacing the cameras with domestic models. The cameras were used for monitoring training grounds and unit fences, not for DMZ surveillance. The military plans to take legal action against the vendor who allegedly misrepresented the cameras' origin.
