'It is categorically false to represent Hikvision as a threat to national security. No respected technical institution or assessment has come to this conclusion.'

The company at the centre of the Leinster House security camera row has denied that its products pose a “threat to national security”.

“As a manufacturer, Hikvision does not store end-users' video data, does not offer cloud storage in the Republic of Ireland and therefore cannot transmit data from end-users to third parties. Hikvision cameras are compliant with the applicable Irish laws and regulations and are subject to strict security requirements.

Its executive director Liam Herrick told RTÉ’s Today with Claire Byrne that it held concerns about the company sharing information with Chinese bodies. “But [there has been] no substantive answer to the question about the human rights issues involved or the national security question.”
