Chinese -made internet-connected cameras are giving the Chinese government the ability to "conduct espionage or disrupt US critical infrastructure," a Department of Homeland Security bulletin says.

The cameras typically lack data encryption and security settings and communicate with their manufacturer.

The bulletin comes amid national security concerns regarding Chinese technology like TikTok and, more recently, DeepSeek.
