How Huawei Got Caught Spying and Lost a $200 Million 5G Contract - Bloomberg
Medie: TDC frygtede Huawei-muldvarp i forbindelse med stor kontrakt | BT Erhverv - www.bt.dk
This is a compilation of information from six people involved in the news site Bloomberg.
In 2019, a problem occurred in the renewal contract for the 5G network of Tele Denmark Communications (TDC), Denmark's largest telecommunications company. The tender was contested between Huawei and Swedish telecommunications company Ericsson.
At the time, Huawei supplied TDC's 3G and 4G networks and was considered to have the upper hand, but TDC signed with Ericsson.
The cause was that Huawei changed its bid at the last minute to ``higher than the original bid but lower than Ericsson''.
TDC suspected that Huawei obtained Ericsson's bid amount in some fraudulent way and set up an investigation team to ascertain the facts.
As a result, multiple long-range microphones were found in the TDC boardroom, which are common items in the room's conference system, but were not supposed to be there, and it is possible that wiretapping was carried out on the TDC premises. I understand.
After that, the research team moved the office from the premises of TDC to the Presner Law Firm, but this time it was said that a severe cyber attack was carried out against the Presner Law Firm. Law firm security has spotted a drone flying outside the 15th floor window where the investigative team's offices are located. Members of the TDC research team who went to work the next day realized that they had forgotten to lower the window shades.
In addition, it is not clear who was operating the drone after all.
TDC declined to comment further on the story, saying the employee Bloomberg mentioned is no longer with the company. In addition, a Huawei spokesperson completely denied the content of the article, saying, ``We comply with laws and regulations and strive to conduct business to the highest standards.We deny any wrongdoing.''
According to social news site Hacker News, ``I've heard general political grievances against Huawei, but I've never heard anything this far [to fly a drone] against Huawei. , I understand why they took an intimidating attitude. ” Servers have small chips.” Article was denounced as a lie.Should we believe the sensational reports about China or is this a massive information show that the US and China are waging around the world? Is it just one skirmish in the war? ' It has been pointed out that the article was written from an anti-Huawei standpoint from the beginning.
