Restrictions have been placed on 'high risk' vendors to limit the risks posed by Huawei.
Britain has given Huawei the green light to work on 5G infrastructure, despite sustained pressure from the US to ban the company.
“High risk vendors have never been — and never will be — in our most sensitive networks,” Ciaran Martin, the chief executive of the National Cyber Security Centre , said. “Taken together these measures add up to a very strong framework for digital security.”The DCMS announcement made no mention of Huawei directly but a separate announcement from the NCSC said the decision was “including, but not limited to, Huawei” and said Huawei had been treated as a “high risk” vendor since 2003.
The UK, US, Australia, New Zealand, and Canada are all members of the international intelligence sharing group known as the ‘Five Eyes’ and the US are concerned that a breach in UK communications could leave them exposed. Republican politician Newt Gingrich, the former speaker of the House of Representatives, called the UK decision “a major defeat for the United States” on Twitter.Foreign secretary Dominic Raab said the decision wouldn’t damage UK intelligence sharing agreements.
Republican Senator Lindsey Graham, who chairs the Senate Judiciary Committee, tweeted the decision could “could greatly complicate a US-UK free trade agreement”.
