**CNI(Centro Nacional de Inteligencia, the Spanish official intelligence agency) Certifies 19 Huawei Products for Use in Critical Sectors Such as Defense**
*With over 70 devices in April, it far exceeds the certifications obtained by Spanish companies*
The National Intelligence Center (CNI), through the National Cryptologic Center (CCN), has just released its list of security certifications for software and devices for the month of April. In the document, to which THE OBJECTIVE has had access, more than 70 Huawei products are certified as safe for use in Spain. In total, 19 of them have received the highest level of certification, meaning they can be used in critical infrastructures or sectors (healthcare, defense, banking, energy, etc.).
These figures stand in stark contrast to those of other Spanish companies such as Telefónica, Indra, or Teldat, which have fewer devices bearing this quality mark in the April list published by the CCN. The CNI report highlights Huawei’s momentum, as its technology manufacturing capacity seems limitless, presenting a much larger volume of products for certification each month than its rivals. In the case of Telefónica, the number rises to 8 certified devices, compared to nine for Indra and 45 for Teldat, the latter being a company specifically dedicated to the development of computer devices.
The CNI’s task is to ensure that all equipment to be launched on the market possesses the necessary security levels to provide service in Spain, including public administrations, critical infrastructures, and Ibex 35 corporations, as well as the bulk of citizens. It so happens that China has been singled out by the United States for allegedly using backdoors in its equipment to steal information and send it to the Beijing dictatorship, an accusation for which there is no evidence to have occurred.
Of the total number of Huawei devices certified as safe by the CNI, 19 have received the “HIGH” rating. “In the context of the CNI’s CPSTIC Catalog, a product qualified for High Level is one that has passed the most rigorous security tests to guarantee the protection of systems where an incident would cause very serious harm to national security, public services, or citizens,” the CCN emphasizes in the document.
The CNI details that “for the inclusion of a product or service in the catalog, the CCN will take into account the following criteria: a) In the case of Approved Products for handling classified information, the maximum classification level of the information it can handle (LIMITED DISTRIBUTION, CONFIDENTIAL, RESTRICTED, SECRET). b) In the case of Qualified Products and Services, the maximum category of the information system in which it can be employed (HIGH, MEDIUM, BASIC).”
This news coincides with the official visit of the President of the Government, Pedro Sánchez, to China to strengthen ties with the Asian giant at a critical geopolitical moment marked by the conflict between Iran, Israel, and the United States, with the Strait of Hormuz at the center, and the war in Ukraine, with Vladimir Putin fraternizing with China as an ally.
**Certified Huawei Products**
Among the Huawei products certified this month by the CNI, routers designed to direct data traffic in large data centers or corporate networks stand out. Also included are security barriers (firewalls) that act as defensive walls to inspect network traffic, detect intrusions, and create secure VPN tunnels.
It has also given its approval to massive storage systems and disk arrays. The CNI certifies that their data-at-rest encryption mechanisms and access management are robust and have no backdoors allowing information leakage.
In the case of professional WiFi antennas for government offices or university campuses, where user access security and over-the-air encryption are specifically evaluated, several Huawei devices have obtained CCN authorization, along with operating systems and management software that allow administrators to control routers and switches from a single location. The CNI evaluates that this technology is resistant to external attacks.
That’s it guys. They have a way in. And we all thought it’s Hungary the problem. Huawei will route to Chinese KGB headquarter every message, order, spec, plan…
What a stab in the back, Spain!Â
As long as we don’t use Microslop.
This guy really likes communist china, very odd.
European independence, right Pedro
Uhu… and using american tech is safe? Double standards much?
Ah… The Objective, the well-known far-right online media outlet that has by no means been accused of publishing hoaxes and manipulating information…
Oh look, the daily post bashing on the Israel critic.
Sánchez is right, others should do the same and the sooner, the better.
EU is way behind 5G and future 6G, Huawei is already making tests with it at some towns, and Huawei is about to become a major player in Processors and production.
Oh come on, we just got rid of Orban, give us a break!
we are the stupidest this continent has ever been. 1 step forward, 2 steps back. I’m so tired of this union constantly being somebody’s bitch and nobody doing anything about it
The Objective is absolute garbage. And this is one of those news stories we all knew was bound to come up, given Spain’s stance on the Middle East.
His high morals end at Israel.
Why are people complaining about this? Who is supposed to be the “good guy” we buy this equipment from? There are no European manufacturers who make all the products that are needed to build networking infrastructure.
To quote my comment from 4 days ago:
>Spain has gone full commie.
China [requires all their companies](https://www.cisecurity.org/insights/blog/the-chinese-communist-party-ccp-a-quest-for-data-control#:~:text=data.%22%5B11%5D-,2023,-Revision%20to%20the) to grant the government any access they want, without warrants or constraints. Thus, all Chinese products have a Chinese government backdoor by **LAW.**
>**2023 Revision to the Counter-Espionage Law**Â requires all citizens and organizations to assist the government with counterespionage operations. Since the law expands the concept of espionage in an ambiguous manner, the law may govern anything that the CCP deems relevant to national security
When a more sensible Spanish government comes, they’ll have to spend money to rip all this equipment out, and replace it with secure one.
Lots of CCP bots in the comments today
Oh but why does people code for the far right? Omg
Spain is going to get the Cuba treatment from the USA eventually.
As much as this is old news, I’ve said it before and I will say it again. He is China’s dog.
At this point, I wouldn’t be surprised if he already bought kneepads before a flight to Beijing.
I swear, our leaders are pathetic.
O my … Pedro selling it’s safety to China to get it’s independence from us systems. Well done !. That’s def the right way to go and not into European systems.
What could go wrong, right?.
