The National Grid is reportedly the latest organization in the UK to begin pulling China-manufactured equipment from its network over cybersecurity fears.
The contract with the UK subsidiary of China’s state-owned Nari Technology, NR Electric UK, was terminated after seeking advice from the National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC), according to sources who spoke to the Financial Times.
The organizations involved have remained largely tight-lipped over the revelation. The NCSC declined to comment, as did the Department for Energy Security and Net Zero, NR Electric UK did not respond to a request for a statement.
