Security researchers have discovered that Deepsek China Mobile may transmit the user login information, prohibited from restricting a state -owned telecom firm from operations in the United States, due to alleged Chinese military relations. This revelation enhances important concerns about user privacy and national security.
According to a report by the Ferot Security, the website of the Deepsek includes the code that captures the user credentials during the account construction and login procedures. While Deepsek’s privacy policy admits that the user data is stored on the server in China, China has a deep connection to the infrastructure of the Chinese state before mobile participation. Ivan Tsrineni, CEO of Ferot Security, said, “It is Mindbogling that we are inadvertently allowing China to survey Americans and we are not doing anything about it.”
Further analysis by independent safety experts confirmed the presence of the code, but did not inspect the data being sent to China mobile during tests conducted in North America. However, they could not dismiss the possibility that such broadcasts occur under different circumstances.
This discovery is included in the increasing list of security concerns around Deepsac. The company recently faced a “large -scale cyber attack”, which led to a temporary suspension of new user registrations. Additionally, Deepsek has been accused of using data from contestants such as Openai and Microsoft without permission to train their AI models.
Stewart Baker, a former officer with Homeland Security and National Security Agency, compared the previous controversies related to Chinese apps, stating that Deepsek “raises all tickets concerns, as well as talking about such information. There are excessive chances.
As Deepsek continues to gain popularity, these revelations underline the importance of examining data practices of AI applications, especially with possible connections to foreign state -owned institutions.
