Huawei, a large Chinese networking company has decided to ease tension going into the
U.S market by allowing less sensitive industries (Ranger, Steve) to use their products and
services. Huawei is best known for producing telecoms and other communication devices
including providing services for companies to store and transfer data. The company has had a
difficult time cracking the U.S market due to spying accusations and other security concerns
publicized by the U.S House of Representatives in 2012. Despite this, Huawei has decided to
resolve these issues by proving its products and services to be trustworthy by relying on many
U.S enterprises that rely on its products and services. Ron Raffensperger, Chief Tech. Officer of
Huaweis business solutions noted, that the company has not ran into nearly as much friction
with enterprise business and we have lots and lots of customers that have very, very sensitive
information that they have stored in Huawei systems without any problems(Ranger).
2.
-Google/Yahoo
-Google is the better search engine in this case. Despite the fact that both give you articles and/or
reports from around the same time period (late 2012-July 2014) Google tends to not just reach
out to topics directly related to Huaweis security threats in the U.S but also in Europe, where
they have made much greater progress in the European market. Google also talks about
companies that relate to Huawei such as ZTE.
